    Default Hand Forged Brand Razor in Blue Acrylic

    This was an ebay purchase gone bad, I did not notice the blade had been shortened. But I liked the spine work and decided to fix her up. I rounded the toe a bit, and polished it up.Turned out to be a sweet shaver. She was put in some cool dark blue acrylic and the wedge is Gabon Ebony with brass liners along with brass pins and domed brass washers. Hope you like it.

    Thats a sweet looking razor there. Nice choice with the scales and the wedge looks very cool too.

    The details like the domed washers and liners defining the wedge from the scales add some nice accents.

    A pretty package.
