L.R. Harner 7/8 Custom in Horn

Amazing razor. Customer requested classic style scales. I kept it simple, clean. It turned out wonderful.

The customer requested that I not hone this one, so, I won't get the luxury of taking it for a spin. I can't think of anything more cruel in the entire universe. :gaah: (just kiddin heh)

Lots of pics.

Absolutely gorgeous,Brad. I think the pins really make it.:rofl2:

Great looking work. It's a fine looking razor and some one is going to be very happy with it.

Absolutely exquisite Brad! I want some horns now. What type wedge is that?

What did you use to finish the horn? Thanks

Took a few pics during the process of making these today, for those interested.

The wedge is made out of cow bone. Above you saw the process of hand sanding... here is one after the first session on buffer. 2nd pic shows how I dealt with Butch's huge ass 1/8" pivot holes. :dropjaw:

That is great work Brad. The bone wedge really does the trick. I love it and can't wait to hone it up and shave with it.


BTW this is one of the blades from the Blade Bank Project that Butch has going.

Very nice razor. Let us know how it shaves.

Seth should be a happy camper for such a great looking combo. Love the high polished finish of the horn scales. Very nice.
