6/8+ C.V. Heljestrand - Buffalo Horn

By request in Black Buffalo horn the CV Heljestrand of Eskilstuna Sweden stamped MK No. 32
The blade was in great shape just pure D shiny steel, Bill asked for Black and we decided since I had these Buffalo Horn here we would go with it... The horn was re-polished from 220 grit-12000 grit micro-mesh then hand polished with TW liquid rubbing compound and finally RenWax....
The pins and washers were done in NiAg and SS for an all over Silver look...

The wedge is Water Buffalo Horn...

Black and silver, just the way I like it. I like the shape of the tang on that one too.
Very nice work.

That black wedge, along with all the other components, gives it a tough, no BS attitude. Looks great.

I am sorry I gotta brag a bit, the more I looked at it the more I liked it :D
You can barely see it in the pics and on the razor, but there are some very faint Grayish wisps of smoke in the Black of the horn...and believe it or not I planned for them to go through the scales...
The more I looked at it the more I didn't want to ship it home :y

Maybe you could post some closeups of the scales. I'd like to see the detail.

Thank you,

That is one sharp looking Heljestrand. The owner will be really happy with this razor.

You did a beautiful job on it Glen and I do not blame you one bit for not wanting to send it home.
