    Well Ben, I have no idea what a logarithmic scale is, but you I think put into words what was naturally in my head. I was basically going for "each hole is further from the last by an equal looking... sum of distance?" lol. I don't know, something like that, I just eyeballed it.

    Thanks guys.

    Very nice work!, as always. I suspect that you shaped those scales, did you use heat?
    2.4.6.8.16 etc ,is the spacing. Very imaginative.

    Randy I just ground them out this way by eye. You can't heat up this material and shape it like steel. The lines just need to be ground evenly, no measuring, etc.

    I got this blade from a guy at SRP. It was kind of lucky on my part because I had PMed him about a different razor.

    Well that has a flow to it. Love the curves in the blade and scale shapes.
