    Default A Christmas gift from OCD Razors

    Thought I would make myself a Christmas gift (sorry guys). I have been a good boy this year!

    This is an 8/8's round nose, with a mirror finish. Swayback with jimps top and bottom. Scales are 3 pin polished bone with a rose madrone wedge.

    I tried to give it an "old school" look. Just keeping it simple.

    Looks terrific, and is probably an excellent shaver. Enjoy it.

    I sure wish I could make myself a Christmas gift like that

    Great looking razor but jeez it stresses me seeing the edge sit on that coin

    +1 but it is a great looking razor. You mean to say you made that ? What steel and is it forged or stock removal ? Stock removal is fine but I am a sucker for hand forged. One way or the other enjoy your Christmas present.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Don't fret guys. I photograph BEFORE I hone.

    Steel is 1095. Stock removal...no forging.
