    Arrow Bowdins Wedge - Hand Made ~ Blue Pauacrylic

    This is the first restore and rescale off the week going to Kenny.

    It's not always the big meat choppers that rule. We should never rule out the power of the smaller league.

    The razor had scratches on the blade and the tang had severe staining and blemishes which Kenny had tried to remove as much as he could with whatever knowledge he had. Since he wanted this one to be perfect he send it to me.

    The blade is back to showroom condition. As to scales Kenny wanted the blue Pauacrylic and gave me a few requests as to how he would like the scales.

    This one is a mighty great shaver. Will go back to Arkansas where it belongs.

    Enjoy kenny!

    Total weight: 1.1 Oz

    I'm a fan of these little guys. I own a Max restored Bowdins as well, and it's one of my favorites.

    Now the razor is even more fitting that I'm moving to Minneapolis in June. I may have to start collecting these

    Excellent work as always Max!

    Like the scale design on these little wedgies you've done lately.
    As for the blade - Superb as always.
