humpback 6/8
nice little 6/8 humpback razor with carved tang and tail
the blade is 52100 steel with "hammer tone" finish on the flats.
the blade is high belt finished and has an edge length of 2.75 inch
the olive wood handle is one piece of wood and has been sealed with CA to help make it even more resistant to wetness

That is a beauty Butch. I love the hammer work. If it shaves anything like this 52100 steel that I got from you a couple of weeks ago it will be worth it's weight in gold. :rock:

How unique!
I thought about using olive wood for scales, but then I got a cheese board in olive wood, and it smells like olive oil. I think that would only make me hungry.
-
funny thing is i live the smell as i saw the blanks up (have respirator on when grinding tho)
its sealed so you would not smell it so much :)
-
Great looking work Butch...You really nailed that one.
-
Absolutely beautiful razor.

-
I love the blade profile on that. Very very cool...
-
thanks all
i hope to do some more work with olive wood as its nice to work and finished great
-
for the record this is my favorite custom built razor that I've ever seen. Not to take away from any of the other great builders, but for me this one is the coolest I've ever seen.
-
This is one of your best yet! This one has great lines, and the scales were a good choice.

Hey Butch, I really like the file work. It reminds me of the ship in the movie "20,000 leagues under the sea". The ships name was the "Nautilis" if I recall correctly.:)

when it didn't have a set of scales on it i thought it looked like a sea horse
and was thinking about a Ti handle to match but i was told let the razors shape speak for itself
