    Default Torrey Customised

    Finished four blades today , I thought I'd show two of them. The photos are poor, sorry.

    A Torrey in stabilised Burl and Nickel Silver. Its a heavy 7/8ths . A lovely blade that was a pleasure to hone..

    Also i'll chuck in a KAM. Stabilised Wenge that you cant actually see properly, take my word, it is shiny and pretty, with copper and brass..

    Thanks..

    Very nice! That Torrey is a great example. Dig the copper with the brass as well!

    Great restorations.

    I have a soft spot for Torrey's seeing that I was born and raised in Worcester, Ma.

    Tom is right too....the copper is really cool. Love the collars.

    Those last 2 photos showing the copper bits are so cool. Very nicely done work.

    Ah relativity theory; I always chuckle when guys with photography skills so evident as yours apologize for not reaching perfection. And here I am with no light box and an iPad. Sheesh...and I don't apologize! Is this callous?

    Thanks Speedster . I took Indoor photos on Friday and outdoor photos yesterday. They are both terrible, in real life the razors look so much better..
    I have a pro camera and lighting set up so there is no excuse.. Once I get good shots I can list them on my site..
