This one was supposed to be a 7/8 covered tang blue madrone wood for M in DC. But I screwed up the design and the grinding,:gaah::boohoo:
:thinking::hmmm::idea:so instead of throwing it on the scrap heap I reworked it and threw on these celluloid tortoise shell scales from a sheet I've had laying around for a while. It is full hollow, near mirror with a brass wedge. Not bad for one that almost didn't make it.
As always, thanks for looking

You can throw that heap of metal in my trashcan anytime. JK JK JK
If I could succeed a tenth as well as you screw up I would die a happy man. That is a sweet looking razor, I love the worked back, and the matching notched scales, and the blade.... Well basically I really like the look of your razor, way to go!!
Bob ... Just fantastic work. I love every thing you make...save me one off the trash heap!
Nice Bob.
Is that one of the ones from our weekend?
Jim
No... this is one from a couple weeks earlier. I was careful not to make too many mistakes when you were there. :angel:
Bob
Kick save and a beauty! Nicely done as always Bob :beer2:.
Bob that is absolutely awful. I am very sorry for your loss but I'll be a good sport. You can send it to me, I'll pay the shipping costs and ensure that that horrible mistake gets properly disposed of. :njQuote:
