Thanked: 735Re-scaled
Cherry over aluminum, gunstock shape. Countersunk screws, threaded into back scale.
Acrylic spacer gives a subtle and cool effect! (I forget who already used this as a spacer, but my hat's off to you)

That is cool! i know Max used an acrylic spacer in one recently. I like the aluminum man, clever combination. that blade work is just great, you have a good eye. (possible two)

Thanked: 735Yeah, maybe it was Max I was thinking of...
I also have some cool flourescent acrylic, but that wasn't appropriate for this razor. Maybe on my next project....

Looks great !
Are those liners anodised or sealed somehow ? Just wondering if corrosion is a risk at all.“The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.”

Thanked: 735Nah...6061 aluminum isn't going to be going anywhere. Even if it did, hit it up with some scotch-brite and it'd be back in business.

Thanx. I was thinking more about the steel rusting thru galvanic reaction but I guess it'd have to be wet for quite a while to be any concern.

Could you tell us what you used to make the thumb indentation and the narrowed shank?
