Dubl Duck in Paua Shell
This Dubl Duck Started with wrong scales that were too short, heck it wouldn't even close.
I cleaned up the blade rust and made the scales with Paua shell from Masecraft.
From sheet stainless steel, I made some washers oversize. Domed them to make little half spheres. To keep their shape I stacked tappered washers behind them. Nickel rod was used, peening and polishing smooth. I like how they kinda look like shinny little pearls against the shell.
The wedge is red acrylic that has some white streaks in it.

Very nice job, I appreciate the attention to detail you've put into things like your domed washers. It should be a wonderful shaver, and I wish you the best with it!
