AW Wadsworth XLNT in Koa !!!
This is one coming out of the shop and heading to the hones today....
First a HUGE thank you to Oso for sending me the Koa to work with, what a great piece of wood...
This is my favorite type of restore to do when the client says "Koa then do what ever you want with it"
I ended up having to seal the wood, before the finish because of the deep graining... I am looking at the pics and wondering on the one shot that shows a little staining on the front side because you can't see it in person at all.. (maybe a little more MAAS).... I tried one pic in there with a flash to try and show the tiger striping in the grain put it just doesn't bring it out as well as it looks in person.... The last shot is just bragging that is what I mean when I say they are balanced out....
Razor: A.W. Wadsworth & Son Germany 1905-1936
