Salieri: I was staring through the cage of those meticulous ink strokes - at an absolute beauty.
Salieri my man . . . I know how you feel. Sigh! 
Beautiful work Max.

I did throw both razors on the wheels with some green compound. It cleaned the Friodur to a nice uniform looking blade. Still the original satin look, only better.

Beautiful work there as always.
Man, you even got the toe end to a perfect mirror finish on the wapi, i can see your hands in the reflection. Thats the part i always run out of patience with.
Very Very stylish scales.

Grant, I wonder why you're struggling to get a mirror finish on the toe end. I presume you don't use any powertools like a buffer or even Dremel. Originally Posted by baldy

Another nice one Max. I think what make your razors so good is that attention to detail.

Being used to staring at your exceptional craftsmanship and the aesthetic panache of your designs, I must say that you really redefined new frontiers once more, with your work on the Friodur.
Amazing.

Max, I have been doing everything by hand, and hand sanding that toe end to a mirror finish really tests my patience. I've only had one buffing wheel which i use on the acrylic scales, but its fathers day tomorrow (Down Under) and I'm getting some 2 inch buffing wheels I'll be using for blades.
Cheers
