Thread: Mutant Hybrid #3 "The Darkness"

This one used to be a Birko Best 6/8 (Solingen).
The first 2 of these fixed blade razors I've made had 2 piece handles glued together around the tang, this time I made a solid 1 piece handle with a tang hole drilled down the middle similar to what Glen did a few months back. The handle is midnight acrylic, I love the stuff.
The blade was modded and then hand sanded. I then went to blue the blade, the unusual effect on the blade was unintentional, but I like it a lot.
This one is a little bigger than the earlier models, measuring just over 7.5 inches in length. It feels great in the hand and I have given it a test shave with a Coticule edge and it really impressed me.
