Great job Brad! Very elegant.

Nice one! Did you chamfer the edges of that wedge before fitting it or is it just a trick of the light?

After I fitted the wedge / sanded it down flush, I disassembled so that I could buff the ends of the wedge up and finish the insides of the wood. I went over the edges of the wood with 1000 grit to knock down any sharp edges, and I did the wedge area of the insides of the scales too, not realizing I shoulda left the sharp edges. My pics here make the gaps look way more pronounced than it is in person...minor mistake but one I won't make again.

Oh I didn't mean that as a critisism, I really like the look of it. I might give it a try.

Very classy look!

Hello, Undream:

What fine work you have done on that razor, my good man. It shouts quality all around, from the wood scales to the pin work. And it's a square point, too, one of my favorite styles. I am impressed. With a striking razor such as yours, one would want to shave twice a day instead of just once. Well done.

Regards,
Obie

Great work Brad! Don't worry about the wedge. The camera doesn't miss a thing! I'm sure it looks even better in your hand.

Nice work!
