Thread: My TX meet build

Amazing, John. A truly, one of a kind.

No tang stamp, or something to mark your work..!?

I'm just thinking about the guy 150 years from now, going thru that moment we do, of....wonder who the maker/ grinder was, who owned it before me, ect.

I really dig the tail, maybe keep that for future grinds.

Again, congratulations on a gorgeous first, and i know, not the last. I can see an addiction, happening.

I wasnt going to say it but Mike did.
Some kinda markings would have been nice. But i dont know what it would have taken to do this on ths spot.

Beautiful work. Would love the opportunity to make my own razor. You must have learned a lot from the first attempt!

Hey! Get a Dremel engraver and put 'Maestro John' on the tang!

It is not just good, it is SUPERB. Looks like an homage to a fancy Elliot Sheffield blade. Love the elongated and sweeping tail, the diamond point of the spine, and the humpback spine. Just beautiful.

Nice blade shape. I like it!

Very nice indeed, can't find any fault in it. Something to be proud of.

John's razor is even better when you can hold it in your hand and look at it. I was amazed by the blade after he ground at the shop.

The whole package scales and all look amazing. I wish I had your hand eye coordination and talent. Congratulations on the beautiful razor.

Pretty sure he's found his calling.

I know, I keep coming back to look at it, too.

You got scabs on the scales from rubbing and stroking it, John.!?

That means a lot coming from you, Charlie. Thank you so much for making your shop and experience available to us.

Sorry for the not sweeping up the wool under the grinder before I left on the last day.
