Pair of Friodur 8/8 in Horn
These are not meant to overshadow Aquanin's awesome friodur he just posted...., lol. Just a coincedence! I had them done almost 2 weeks ago but wasn't allowed to post because they were a fathers day gift! some lucky dad out there....
2 pins requested, and you can see the massive wedges it took to get the scales clearing the tangs.
Inlay xfer from a smaller 4/8 friodur, epoxy set onto horn and then excess epoxy meticulously cleaned up using razor blades and a steady hand.
mixture of silver and brass hardware between the two razors
and here they are together..

Man those are nice I love the Friodur's and love horn scales. If I wasn't saving up for a Japanese razor and a dissecting microscope. I would be saving up for a Friodur like one of those. Maybe I'll just have to ad that to my list and make it 3 things I'm saving for.

Beautiful work! Those Friodurs are a bugger to scale right.

I really like the horn rescale, very classy. I've been saving up for a window unit AC unit for my lil shop. Got it, just have to install it. Now I can start sticking some back for eye candy like this that you tease us with...shame on you!!
