    Default 9/8 Robert Williams Mother of Pearl

    Here she is:
    RW 9/8 Tapered to a 7/8
    Quarter Hollow with a Shoulderless Grind, Half Pipe File work w/ Gator Tail and Stippled Back, and extended monkey tail, and Mother of Pearl Laminate Scales.

    Mr. Williams and I talked at length about all the details and options. He was great to deal with and made me a true custom master piece. Thanks again!!

    There is plenty to like. Point, the blade profile and the subtle file work. Scales are gorgeous. Beautiful razor.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I love the stippling, and the tang/tail shape and file work. the blade would be great if it didn't taper off like that towards the end, but as long as that is what you like it's an excellend razor. I agree his work is getting continually better.

    Thanks. I am quite happy with how it turned out. The taper was part of the design based on an old Sheffield razor. Just what I wanted!
