    This was my first attempt at a rescale using acrylic pen blank material. The blade needs alittle more polishing just couldn't wait to shave with it .The test shave last night was great nice and smooth after a light touch up on the hone.

    I like how the swirl lands in the middle of the scale.
    Where did you get pen blanks long enough? All the ones I've run into are just 5 inches.

    Thanks guys!
    Tumtaty asked were i got pen blanks so long they are acually only 5" long this razor was 4 1/4" from the pivot hole to the end of the blade so it worked out allright lengthwise. I wish you could see the metal flake in the pics i need to make a diy light box up (already in the works!)
