    Very sweet finish on those horn scales.

    I'm sure the wife's gotta love the smell of you working horn. I know mine locks me up in my shop, opens up all the windows and I can hear the complaining. Once I even had a neighbor ask me if I was cooking some kind of foreign dish.

    Sweet looking combo G!

    So guys, what does Ox horn smell like? Burnt hair? Some of the synthetics have to be fairly funky too with the different resins used. I never thought about that. I guess the woods would smell the best. Interesting. That’s the price you pay for your art!

    The Horn, Bone, and Antlers, do smell funky, AND they cling to you, the Synthetics and Woods have their own scent but they basically brush right off and the smell does too...
    Max and I are always joking about it...

    I love shaving with the rally old straights. It gives a great sense of history and that is now one very sweet razor.
