custom J'G Escher hone box
Though not a razor it is a custom build! Thought my green Escher needed a special home so i made it it's own custom walnut box. Inlaid a piece of veneer with a copy of the banner wood burnt into it and a copy of the label glued to the inside of the lid (still has the label on the hone). Went for a vintage look over all. Hope it give someone inspiration.

That's beautiful work, Vern-great idea and execution! (I'm loving that Fat Boy you sold me, by the way).

Wow. Reminds me of some old time coffin boxes for hones. LOVE IT. Will have to make something like this one day. I really like the label copies too.

Very well done box for a spectacular stone. I especially love how well you captured the peculiarity of their lettering on your inlay. Bravo!
