    How the heck do you get a frameback that clean? Could you give some, or any, detail on how you did it? I know that this is not just a simple sandpaper job.

    If I'd tell you I'd have to kill you.. All jokes aside...

    Plenty of patience as it took really a long time on the wheels because the blade (wedge) is actually pretty thin (and since the last thing you want to do is destroy the temper by over heating the blade).
    But mostly buffer, wheels, compounds and the golden touch.

    Well I got my razor today, I have to say Max it looks better in person. Also the hone job is unbelievable. I took it out of the box , took a shower and shaved and it is definitly the sharpest razor I have shaved with so far. It cut through my beard like butter , Im considering taking a second shave this week without stropping to see what it will feel like.

    Thanks Again
    Mike

    MAD Max !!!!!
    Strikes again...
    Am I seeing that right in the pics, did you actually take the scales from thinner at the pivot to thicker at the wedge?????
    Either way it looks great, but if you did, then you get a higher ^5 that isn't all that easy to do....

    Congrats Mike looks like you have a Sweet razor heading home to Ya !!!

    Is everyone in KSC getting to shave with Mike's W&B?
    That means I'll probably get it back anytime soon for another hone

    Always feel like a kid in a candy store looking at your work Max.
