It's been pretty hot out in my shop recently, but I avoided heat stroke long enough to finish this nice little 6/8.
The horn has some nice figuring near the toe pin, and I'm very happy with how the scales came out as a whole. Very glossy. :)

You consider that "Little"? I want some of your rotation!
Gorgeous work, as usuall.. I'm loving the mosaic pins..
Is that near wedge or quarter-hollow? In any case, it's sweet! :tu
It's in my favorite size too :p should be one heck of a shaver.
Probably more like a quarter hollow. I use an 8" wheel on all of my razors right now, as a bigger one would be pretty spendy (several hundred dollars). So whatever an 8" radius does on a 6/8, that's what this is. :)Quote:

And where would this be available at? If it's someone's order, I'm sure they will be more than pleased with it. Beautiful work...
Very nicely done Josh! A classic look. I'm with you on hot shops. WHile I can use to melt away more than a few pounds I have trouble sweating into my glasses. Very unsafe.
Thats a beautiful piece of work there, I love the wedge, is it polished brass?
Yep. Shiny like mirror. :) One of the reasons I love horn is that I can buff the spacer without risking ruining the scales themselves with residue from the buffing wheel.Quote:

I enjoy using horn too. Polish it up & it's finished! I'm very impatient & have been known to rush the finish stage, ruining all my previous efforts, so horn is great for me.
My Lord, your razors are gorgeous. I want to own a few.
Absolutely beautiful! Just looking at it makes me want to shave with it!!
