    what if there was a strider style razor

    you know carved G10 milled one piece for spine and scale
    then a 1/8 thick carved Ti colored other scale

    maybe like this
    its an 8/8 and the blade is over 3 inch long

    that's cool. I love the texture and technicolor of the scales.

    I thought a strider razor would be broken off at the end and be capable of smiting the Dark Lord Sauron? [at least if it's been honed recently on a shapton 32k]

    IMHO that would look gawdy. I like it as-is.

    I don't think Stryder would go with a tiger stripe, but would likely enjoy some sort of file work on the spine how about some pics showing the blade?

    I think its cool and I don't usually like the non-tradiitional forms.

    Ilike the idea of tiger stripes, but not with those scales, sounds like another fun project. If I was working, I would make the investment of a belt grinder and try a few of these myself!

    Like the look. Bit like knapped flint only colorful.
