    Default Wade & Butcher redo

    This is the latest finished scales on a big W&B Chopper. The scales are Amboyna wood, the wedge is Gaboon Ebony and the liner is a vinyl impregnated spacer material.



    I finished this in laquer and being a bit oversized, balanced the huge blade very well. Although this wood is quite expensive, it is very nice to work with.

    It looks like a stunning razor, what size is it and how does it shave.

    That's beautiful work. It certainly does justice to an impressive blade!

    Beautifully figured wood and a great job in fit and finish. You're a talented guy Rayman.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I love the contrast with the wedge and am very partial to lined wood scales. Great job

    Beautiful lines... or should I say curves

    Great looking wood, gives that extra push to any razor and on this one it's perfect.
