Faultless Razor Nr. 35 - F.A. Koch & Co. N.Y - G10 2x2 layered

Here's a gorgeous looking Faultless Razor Nr. 35 - F.A. Koch & Co. N.Y which was made in Germany.

Cleaned up extremely well with just a few tiny residual pits. It has those beveled edges on the spine, a notched tang with jimps and the blade for its size has a nice hefty feel to it.

The scale material used is a new 2x2 layered G10 Black/Tan which actually through the sanding and buffing process bleeds into more off a grayish tint.

For the wedge I used a gray acrylic version and silver nickle washers, spacers and rod which made everything look very uniform in color.

Beauty and classy. You really nail those down so well with your work. Love the pin work it is truely flawless.

Scales are sweet and well shaped and have a nice flowing design.

Blade... man you got a great eye for style. Its a real slick and not often seen blade, especially in that condition !

Bravo !

Great job with that razor. I like the combination of materials - a well polished blade, nickel silver and black and white.

You did an outstanding job with the scales. It takes a lot of precision in the shaping of layered material with such contrasting layers.

Beautiful Work,
AS for you reply on one of my questions about a mirror finish. Even the VooDoo witch has a potion. I tried a different polish and method and it seems its more about the time and patience than the materials.
Beautiful Work!

That is a good looking restore. I don't own any razors scaled in it, but i'm loving the look of g10 at the moment!

Not much to add but like how you've matched the scale's wedge end to the blade's toe.

Did you use a buff or tumbler ? You maintained crisp lines on that critter.

That's stunning. Tremendous work.

Where does one buy G10 from?
