5/8 Geneva Cutlery in Thuya Burl

**Aquanin** · 12-31-2009, 08:28 PM

This one is going over seas to Scotland. 5/8 Geneva in Thuya Burl lined with blue vulcanized spacer material finished in CA with a blue swirl acrylic wedge.

The new owner actually didnt send me this blade, he sent me an ERN eBay special that, unless it was an heirloom, wasn't worth restoring. It has terrible hone wear and DEEP pitting. Since he lived so far away, I told him I would pick a similar razor out of my 30+ to be restored pile and this is what came out of it. I think he will be pleased. The ERN is just going to get a honing.

Great to see a Geneva razor getting some love and that one is looking beautiful indeed now. Very nice job!

Love the contrast in the scales! Nice work. The blade looks great too.

I wish i was that proficient with CA!

I love the complimentary aspects of the wood's color up against the spacer.

Thanks Glen,

I just couldn't let a new shaver have a blade that was sub par. This one will fit the bill nicely.

Russel,

Very nicely done and well executed, elegant and fits the blade perfectly.

Happy New year.

I really like how the blue "pops" next to the richness of the thuya burl.
