    Default 6/8 classic design

    Most of my stuff is pretty out there, but from time to time I feel I need to make something classic. This is a 6/8 smiling razor with a monkey tail. No frills, just a nice shaver. The scales are juma dragon.

    The damascus is something I cooked up during the meet in charlie's workshop.

    The contrast on this damascus is pretty defined, dark grey and brite metal. It makes the razor pretty striking. I do like simple designed razors.
    Nice work.

    Very nice my friend, very nice indeed.

    I take it this isn't from the blank that you turned the wrong way at Charlie's? I was just wondering as sometimes mistakes can come out wondrously.
