    Default Fox in red acrylic

    I got this blade without scales. During the weekend I made this scales from red translucent acrylic.

    Default The quick red fox

    First I thought about a spacer in black. Red and black is an almost classic color combination. But then I decided to give the straight a more sportive outfit. A bit like a sports car. And I also chose a more "fluid" (that's hard to explain what I mean, but you get the idea) design for the scales.
    So it became a quick red fox.

    @nessmuck
    It took a while to set a bevel on the blade using a Shapton 500 glass hone. But I think it has more to do with state the razor is in than with the brand of the straight razor. It's a good shaver.
