Here's one with a little whimsey for the Holidays. As usual an 8/8's blade, VII on the hollow grind scale. Mirror finish(top of razor is mirror finish too, but is reflecting scratches in wax coating on wood). Scales are G-10 orange (burned up 3 metal cutting band saw blades cutting these scales, yet they sand really easily....Go figure). Wedge is blue G-10. Razor and scales full of matching sharp angles. :beer2:
Thanks for looking
Happy Holidays
Bob
Nice! :tu

You have a style all your own! Nice looking piece!
Wow Bob you just keep amazing me, you are the man!!!:bow
Understatement of the YEAR! Looks like I need to turn up a blade to do in hunter orange..... Awsome as always Bob, although that wedge pin placement reminds me of another razor :hmmm:. Bob, you are true craftsmen and an outstanding person, I can not thank you enough for all that you have done for me. This world needs more people like you in it. Keep it up and keep sharing with us, a stout in your honor my friend :beer2:.Quote:

That's a monster combo. Very futuristic looking. Excellent job my friend.
Seeing as I'm not all fancy like with an electric saw and such :D, I have had to resort to a hacksaw blade to cut all of my G10(just the blade people, not the whole saw, working out of town and don't have access to the tools I would at home), works fine, little tricky though... Power tools......that's just way too easy :mace:.
Yea that's how we role!!! He isn't kidding. Last razor scales I cut were with a hacksaw blade by hand then I rough shaped them with a course grinding stone then after that the shaping was done with sandpaper by hand. :beer2:Quote:

Hah! I'm rescaling one of your blades for a guy and the blade is almost the same... the design I came up with is almost the same as well! Some differences here and there, but the way the tang fits the scale shape, etc. is almost identical!
Stephen, Phil, Max,
I have a 100 watt work light on my band saw. When I started cutting this stuff I literally saw sparks flying, even under the bright light. Then the teeth wore off until the blades were as smooth as grandma's gums. AMAZING!!!:dropjaw:
Alex, I made 2 similar blades. One I sold to a very nice man who has a very sophisticated taste in his saving equipment. Do him justice.:beer2:
I will also be interested in seeing your design.
Bob
That color scheme would fetch a good price here in Gator country!
Gorgeous blade. Need to put a green wedge on it for us misplaced 'Canes fans. :)
All I can say is, that's awesome and I can't wait to get started on my first scales one of these days, you guys are my inspiration!
metal cutting saw Bi metal blades G10 no problem
wood saw speeds jsut kill blades when cuttign G10 (+sparks )
like the razor tho and it it was all blacked out and matt finished it could have been a stealth
Butch, I thought about that. It would have looked great w/black carbon fiber scales. Yea, stealth fighter look!
Bob
"... woah" haha
Nice work :)
Very nice!
I like the orange and blue :rock:
