I gotta tell you though, that's not the way to strop on newspaper!

I was not stropping but that is the angle I use to hone. I am working on a new patent, the ‘Cut Free Razor’.

Beautiful piece. Love the contrast between the walnut & the olive.

Verrrrrrry nice. Beautiful scales and nice restoration on the blade.

Got it honed up this morning. it took hours to get the bevel on that wedge cut correctly then hone it to shaving sharp. I gave it a test run, I got out my big dog brush and bowl, a little orange bay rum from the Gentlemen’s Quarter and wacked down two days worth of beard. Baby bottom smooth.

that razor looks so classy next to the bowl. Oh man that's nice work.

LOL, I saw that first pick and was thinking , "Man...that's not a good shave, don't know if I'd post that pic..."then I scrolled down.

Great work on that razor!
