    hit thanks in the wrong post, supposed to be in the one at the top of course. that crazy gorgous wood got me all flustered and I was just clicking all over looking for the Buy It Now button. Now I see it wasn't for sale. good thing for me, if I use my credit card for anything other than emergency surgery my wife'll see to it I need it (the surgery that is).

    This shows that you do an equally stunning job with wood and built up finishes as you do with those fancy synthetics. sounds like it's just as hard too!!! one request, could you post a shot of the spacer end, I like to see how different materials work together and always enjoy seeing the quality of fit you get on the spacers.

    thanks for letting us drool.

    It's always the same. I read New Thread - Gallery - Maximillian and I think, "uh oh". How does one weight the impression of such works of art against the covetous greed to possess each one. *sigh* I don't know.

    Just keep the torture coming will you?

    Default Worth the wait!!!

    This has been a project in the making for a while now. Max, you made me the happiest man in Antioch land!!!!!!

    What a stunner, I don't have the vocabulary needed to express my glee after seeing it posted here! Now I have to wait for the USPS to deliver it! I guess that will give me a chance to grow a good solid beard so I can give it a go when it gets here!

    Thanks Max! YOU ARE THE MAN!!!

    Those scales are awesome jaw dropping
    and a great restore to the blade as well.
    another in a great line of masterpieces

    That's a great blade, but the scales really are outstanding! Such a beautiful piece of wood with fantastic figuring. The shape looks perfect for the blade.

    The whole razor is beatiful, but that finish is fantastic.
    Great finish work.
