Great work on all of them.
I like the Dovo, there's a lot going on with the Abalone but still has soft colors.
Well Done!

Great scales, I like all of them.

The shell is not my particular taste, but man you did a great job of it. Beautiful work.
Do you dome those washers yourself?

Those scales are beautiful, I have come back to this thread to look at them a few times. The fit and finish looks perfect.

Love the scales! I just did a W&B in some of that red shell and really like it.

Man. Walt, those are simply georgeous! Did you do the suspended gold yourself? Simply amazing work. I love them!! They all have different pins, and exude their own individual style. I would say a seven day set is in the making! Kudos

The wedge was done with epoxy resin and gold flakes. I had residual slurry when I made these gold scales, so had poured some wedge material at that time.

Thanks for the mention.

No thanks necessary! The razors speak for themselves! I would love to hang out in your workshop for a day!
