Something different in G-10 Orange

**boballman** · 12-18-2009, 12:14 AM

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.

Thanks for looking
Happy Holidays

Bob

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

. 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

Strange, My G10 Hunter Orange cuts easier but is a pain to sand. lol

That's a monster combo. Very futuristic looking. Excellent job my friend.

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!!!

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.

I will also be interested in seeing your design.

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!

like the razor tho and it it was all blacked out and matt finished it could have been a stealth
