Great looking razor. I might have to steal your wedge design.
I feel you about the baby situation.

I quite like the original patina but the resto knocks me out.
One gorgeous razor

Those are some of the best looking scales I've seen. Amboyna Burl is currently my favorite wood, and I just had a new knob made for my progress out of it. I'm looking for a razor to match

I almost forgot to mention. This thing shaves like a dream. Easiest ATG I have ever used. Gotta love old Sheffield Steel!!!
