That's just a piece of art! :rock:
Please let us know how it shaves.
I'm guessing you see the world in a completely different way than the rest of us Lloyd. Like all your work, this is truly one of a kind. Congrats.
Remarkable!
4 years of art paying off:) i did #d art a few years in high school and my teacher all but cursed me when i joined the Marines and didnt take $$ for collage
look at me spelling and writing and see how that would have went :) book work not my good part but work with my hands i can. i thank her for showing me all the different artist to draw inspiration from
and i ll just keep going
BTW its a 7/8 X2.75 and 1084 Fg steel Ti scales and iron wood spacer
the blade is mirror
Really innovative and beautiful work.:bow
That's really impressive, LR. One of these days...:)

MY high school art teacher and I did not see eye to eye. She constantly made me come back after school to re-do things because she did not agree with me on anything. The b*t*h actually told me that the only way she would give me a passing grade would be if I promised to never take another art class ever. I thank for teaching me that some people are entirely unreasonable and you are just better off going around them.
Given the work you do, I'm glad that you had your art teacher. Your work is beautiful. I do have to wonder, how is the balance on that beast?
Butch,
man that one looks great!
That truly is a fine looking razor. I'd definitely leave the honing of this beast to the pros, those scales are MASSIVE! :eek:
the perspective i took the picture makes the scales look way bigger then they are
its not bad to shave with as most or the iron wood is milled out
since i have delivered the razor i can not get more pictures other then i have on the computer i ll have to look and see if i can find one thats a bit more balanced in depth of field
Wow larry you have produced another beauty in steel, what a work of art, if it shaves half as good as it looks you are in for a great shave
I love the almost clinical, precision look combined with the natural beauty of the material on many of your pieces. Another astounding razor!
That's a very nice one.
Congrats
Wow ! Definitely outside the box. :nj
That Ironwood is something else too.
Wow what a beast, fabulous work.....:rock:
the guy that is gettign it for Xmass got to shave with the strazor (same steel) and loved how it shaved so i jsut hope the style is not over the top for him
thank you all for the kind word
this one missed out on entry to knives 2010 but some of my other work is in the running to be in the book i ll have to set yp a thread on the pictures i sent in to show
Very original and interesting design, Congrats! :cool:
Very nice work, Butch.
You really did that ironwood justice.
Where did you get that gorgeous brush in the reflection? LOL
If there's a god in heaven, I'll own something that beautiful some day. Use it with pride as the rest of us envy you.

looks great cant wait to hear how it shaves
Magnificent work!
That is indeed a very strange looking razor. Is the metal the razor made out of stainless steel or is it high carbon steel?
If by chance the razor is no good for shaving, it will be excellent for fighting....just kidding!!
Good luck with the razor and may you have many many excellent shaves with it!!
CrudeHauler
the blade is high carbon and high polished
the handle frame is titanium
it is a shaver (but im sure if you had to it would do fine in other ways)
I too am curious about the weighting. The tang looks very thick, which it would have to be to fit the scales over the ironwood but it may be perspective as you say. It is gorgeous though, I pretty much swore out loud when I saw it. SOL.
So how do you buy a beauty like this...sorry, cant see the product listed anywhere
