Thread: Who has the biggest bone in town?

--> W.C. Wilton

This is a very, very big and heavy full wedge razor, that a SRP member sent to me, to rescale it. He wanted a a bone handle. The problem was, as I promised to make this, I dont thought, that this razor is soooo big.
Now I dont had bone plates in the right size. So I had too buy at the lokal butcher the greatest cadle bone he had in stock. After hours of cooking, sawing and sanding this bone I managed to make this single pair of scales of it. The rest of the bone went to dust and killed by his way 3 belts with a grit of 40 of my belt sander.

Now the razor has 120 grams!
At the blade himself I made nothing. I think its not possible to polish the side with the masonic signs without to destroy them. And the razor would lost his soul, if you have an old side and the other is high polished.

The wedge is from polished snakewood and tin. To assemble the razor I needed more than two hours, because it don´t want to close centered. The problem is that the blade is relatively thin at the pivot but very wide at the top. But finally it worked.
