all the best stuff in one razor!
I made a designer piece to try some new ideas. It's nice to make something that isn't to a customer's specifications once in a while and just get a little creative. This razor has solid mother-of-pearl scales, birdseye damascus steel hollow ground and finshed off with a long, elegant brass swallowtail tang that I painstakingly hand fitted. It all came together really well and I just had to share it with you guys.

Looks killer Robert like all of yours do.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Very very nice. I really like the brass tang. How did you fabricate and attach it?

handmade and handfitted male/female connection pinned with brass. It's really tedious to get just right but it's an outstanding connection that's solid as a rock.

That is just beautiful! You should tell your customers to sod off and be creative all the time!
