    That is a good looking razor. I like the way the shape of the pivot ends matches the tang when it is closed.

    Very nice. Those scales are beautiful. I'm also in line with Spazola, I really like the parallel tang and scales. Great job!

    thanks gentlemen! Unfortunately, I think I didn't give myself enough of a fork when putting together the wedge (those 3 piece wedges can be difficult) and only got about 1/2" of fork out of them, so the heavy blade doesn't have much resistance, even after a good peening. If you hold it upside down, the blade will come out. I'm thinking I'm going to add a 3rd pin on the scales under the tang. However, the pin won't be holding the blade up, as is typical, because of the shape of the blade and scales. Is this a good idea? I like a nice, tight fitting blade.
