I fully and firmly am in the camp that says that stipling is awesome!
Really, that is a new wrinkle on the whole worked back theme. Excellent touch.

Simply amazing. That is plain awesome.
Great work as always.
Small voice of dissent: I think the scales are too long and the toothing is just awful, just as the shiny gold wedge.
That said:
Very nice! The ivory, though not very thick, has a very sturdy, manly look. I also especially like the curve of the spine, tang and tail. It has something organic to it, like a rat's tail or that of a lizard. And the tip does look like a crocodile peeping at the water line, I agree with Mandrake.
To the top with a request for 1 more pics and 2 review on how it shaves!
Beautiful razor Robert! The ivory really sets off the intricate blade.
Beautiful work!
Wow,that really shows some fine creativity and craftwork.
