Klastornblom Swedish Razor 11/16 in Bacote
Here is a recent improvement. There are still spots from the rust before. Overall though the blade was in very nice condition when I got it with only surface rust. I have no before pics, butt he blade was pretty good. I'll be !@# if I can actually center a blade though. Some day I WILL center a blade, just not this one.

Very nice work on that Klas Törnblom. I can see you already have ideas for the next with that black & white marble scale =). Keep up the good work.

Nicely done. I like the wood and the way it was finished. Keep the coming! Try lighter taps when peening the pins. You may be bending the pin a little.

Nice job.
As for the blade alignment, are you sure you're drilling your holes straight ?
I had similar trouble with my dremel drill press till I set it up properly.The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

+1 that grain pattern looks like its just flowing through the wood.
