    Thumbs up Bill Ellis re-scale in Jade Ghost + RC Allman custom

    Chris send me a few customs to work on.

    One is a Bill Ellis that got re-scaled in G10 Jade Ghost. Chris requested to keep the same design as the original scales but use stacked washers and a third pin. Dark transparent tapered wedge. Very nice 5/8, 1/4 hollow blade.

    The second custom is from RC Allman. I had never heard or seen any of his work but it's an impressive blade. The blade still had the belt sander grind marks and satin look so I got asked to mirror polish the blade. It took me several hours to do so but now the wife can use it as a make-up mirror. The blade was the only work done on the razor. It came with very nicely done scales, torx screws and tapered wedge. 8/8, near full wedge.

    Enjoy the custom razor porn.

    Amazing work as always. That RC Allman blade is quite the looker! The thumb/finger notches seem like they'd be interesting to shave with. How does the razor feel in the hand?

    Yes, how does the allman feel in the hand? I dig the thumb notch work on that. I can't imagine it leaving the shop still having belt marks, but they sent it to the right fellow to sort it out, both look fabulous. that jade ghost is always so stunning. Livi should see this thread and send all his blades to you for scales!!
