Modified Red Imp 133 in Padauk Scales

I just thought that I'd share my newly restored Red Imp 133. I got this from my uncle way back when and just never got around to really making it special. It's a super smooth shaver that left me with a hair free face. :nj

As you'll notice it's not exactly a square tip. That's because I (:mad:stupidly:mad:) dropped the razor and broke off the tip a while back. O well, live, learn, and make something out of your mistakes. :rolleyes:

Enjoy,
Kevin

I do like what you've done with your 133...nice save on the toe as well. Imo, you made it a nicer/friendlier shaver, when ya dropped it. :)

Thanks,

Mac

A beauty!

Really like the non-traditional scale shape, nice lines to those.

Nice save! Great looking razor. :)

Well done! Keep them coming!

You had to rub it in didn't you :rant:..... ";" Just kidding. Thanks for the comments everyone! :)

O, I forgot to mention that the spacer is Oak and that the finish is a mix between mineral oil and tung oil prepped with rubbing alcohol. A little unorthodox I know, but it turned out very nice and natural.

Nice save & nice finish on the timber.
Great close up on the pivot area :tu
