Dubl Duck Special No.1 / Silky Oak scales
There's a few Aussie timbers that get called Silky Oak but this is the real deal, Grevillea Robusta.
The raw timber looks like white Oak with pink tones but darkens when oil or shellac is applied.
This one's shellac finished. Kept the original wedge, 3rd pin bush & logo.
A couple of small dark knots on one side but I don't think they detract from the look.
The duckling was a bit rough, so decided on a satin finish.
Still a little pitting and staining remains but the edge is sound.
Honed easily and shaved beautifully.
Kind of razor I like to keep but I already earmarked it for eBay so I'll go ahead with the auction...
Can't keep 'em all.
