My first PCR build.....

Never liked this little blade for daily shaving and the scales were warped. After some over sanding on my first greaseless sanding attempt, I decided to remove the inscription on the blade and shorten and re-do the point. Now I have a nice little PCR for my wife.... Her birthday isn't until March but I may just have to give it to her now...... She saw me honing the blade only and said.... "What a cute little blade!"

Scales are Zebrawood finished on epoxy and the blade is 1.5" long with a custom point.......

I think you should give it a spin and report back with the answer of the whether the size matters question... :)

Will let you know..... :p:p:p:rofl2::rofl2:

I used it this morning around my goatee and it worked very well. My wife is still warming up to the idea........ The straight thing that is.... She doesn't mind the shaving part :)

Still don't compare to your FANCY scales.... You are in a totally different league!

Nice little CR, Barry! Like the new toe shape, too. For form or function? Eh, like most things it's probably a little bit of both...

BB,

Thanks for the compliments..... Yes I was going for a little form and beauty on the toe design. Why not? My wife's birthday is in March..... For now it is just my goatee trimming blade. I hope she likes it.... Time will tell.
