    Man, that is one sweet blade! I didn't realize you could actually sand down past that much pitting, that blade was in really bad shape. Great work!!

    That is an outstanding job, beautiful work. If this was your first attempt at scales/blade restoration you have an unbelievable natural talent for it. Using two different woods like that right out of the shoot is a tall order for a first attempt. Excellent work!

    Really,really came together nice,
    God, I love seeing the old ones that people think are done for, come back out of the dark, and into the light....
    You just saved a piece of History, I think that right there is why I am hooked on restores...
    I case you haven't already realized RRD is the worst of all the disorders
    Keep up the great work!!!!!

    Don't tell my girlfriend....I think i'm in love with your razor. That is a fantastic restoration and I love those scales.

    Do you mind explaining how you made those scales? I'm very interested.

    I hereby name that blade Lazarus, because lo it was dead, and now it lives!

    great looking blade. the handle shape at the end isn't my cup but the work is beautiful compliments that blade.
