    Default W & B in process

    CarrieM suggest picking this one up at a local antique shop a while ago and we previously posted some pics under show and tell. I took the blade to the buffers just before the latest cold snap hit and was waiting to make some scales before posting. Doesn't look like that's going to happen before spring as we decided on a more complicated config on the scales and it was 3 degrees F here last night with an unheated shop. Anyway, with all the latest discussion on buffers lately I thought some of you would enjoy some eye candy. Included are two beofre shots and them the naked blade. Hope you enjoy.

    I got to watch JoeD work on this blade, and it was a real privilege. In case you didn't already know, this man knows his stuff, and he's been very willing to share his knowledge with me.

    Joe, if you need a winter workshop, my door is always open.

    Now that's an interesting W&B... Wonder if the inscription on the blade says The Celebrated or For barbers Use?

    Lovely!

    Looks beautiful so far, looking forward to seeing what you do with the scales
