Well done.

Thanks Russ. The end is really small. The first time I clamped it too tight forcing the core into the horn "fuchi" completely compressing it closed.
I may try making a scabbard for the razor, or i may use the tsuka as a knife handle

Sounds good even something like the 3 cherry plum design or small round conchos with turquoise inserts.
As I said getting the right size might be an issue.

yeah, that's spot on. It ain't gettin' one

the very first try was with red lacquered string maybe i'll add a pic of that in a day or 2

Your handle rocks! Beats the heck out of the usual blue rubber handle, that's or sure.
