Quite a few heading out this week
These are some that are finally heading out this week...
These are all finished in Tung oil, I am really liking the results on most of the woods with this stuff... It is a little more work and time, but I like the look... Traditional peened pins, and contrasting wood wedges....
I would love to do a few more in the Olivewood that stuff is a dream to work with...
The swooping look with the different sword points are also really appealing to me, I have been working on how easy they are to balance the razors... I think I am going to work out a few more different points with them....
A Dovo rescaled in Marblewood Scrimitar point
A Torrey #992 in Rosewood
A Dubl Duck SatinEdge in Ambonya Burl Saber point
A Pathfinder in Cocobolo
And a Heljestrand in Olivewood

The Olivewood is stunning. And the cocobolo a close second.

Each of those razors would be a proud addition to anyone's collection.

Nice variety of scales there Glen. Ain't tung oil great stuff. ? Rhetorical question.

They all look so good and well finnished.
I too will take sides with the Olivewood, but I think part of it is that it is such a nice cut of wood.
Your gonna have some happy folks getting there shave on soon

Very nice a usual Glen. I have some scales I was going to do with epoxy today but now I am having second thoughts and may try tung oil. Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas.

Great looking razors Glen. I also take my hat off to the olive wood. They all look great though and the owners should be very happy.
Having Fun Shaving

They are all beautiful. I really like the shape of the Marblewood scales on the Dovo at the top. That scrimitar point turns me on. Glen I don't know where you find the time to do all of that great work. I guess you don't waste it .
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

G-man is in da house!
the Olivewood is stunning and love the Rosewood too. I can tell that the pictures don't even do them justice and that they even look more stunning in real.
Way to go G!
