    Arrow 7/8-6/8 Wade & Butcher in Smoke Acrylic

    I just finished this one up and used my newest acrylic by request on it, this is a reversed cut Smoke acrylic blank... The acrylic was sanded from 220-12000 grit then polished using Novus 1-2-3...

    The razor is a Custom restored 7/8 slant 6/8 Wade & Butcher near wedge..

    I took this one to a full mirror, if it wasn't for one tiny pin head pit on the reverse side I would call this a perfect mirror finish

    The hardware is stacked Bi-metal washers, and Nickel Silver pins, and the wedge is Marble acrylic...


    Some "before" Pics no scales available on this one for the before shots..





    And now:









    I told you it was a mirror finish

    Stunning scale material, Glen. You did a great job bringing that old beauty back to life; the new owner must be very anxious to get her in his hands!

    But where does the razor porn stop and the real porn begin? I can't tell because Glen put such a good mirror finish on it...

    Yes the new owner is very excited to get his hands on it and yes he does have great taste. In all seriousness a big shout out to Glen who does something magical with acrylic, not to mention the finish he put on that old blade. This will be my second razor from Glen and I'm sure there will be many more as long as he continues his wizarding ways.
