A ZEBRA IN THE ALPS
I just finished this one for a young gent in Switzerland. She is 8/8 square point with jimps top and bottom. Grind is 1/2 to full hollow with a very near mirror finish. Scales are Zebra wood with walnut liners and a bone wedge.
Got a few honing tips from Lynn and some of his "secret supplies" at the meet last month. This razor has the most badass, sharpest edge of any razor to leave the OCD manufacturing facility yet. Thanks Lynn!!!
AA, many happy shaves
As always, thanks for looking

Some of the prettiest wood I could think of. The wood and overall look lends its self to a Mid-Century Modern feel. Sort of nice since the Swiss had a big part in that.

Superb looking razor Bob. I like the two sets of jimps on the tang/spine, looks like a beautiful shaver mate.
Sorry for my ignorance, why the liners? Is it aesthetics or to support the Zebra?
