    The scales are almost a cool 1970s look to it. I love it.

    The best thing to do Obie to beat the heat is to hit Benji's deli in Shorewood for either Lox/bagel/cream cheese, or their corned beef sandwich. Any food you get there is fantastic!!! Then go next door for ice cream to celebrate!!! LOL I used to live there. UW-M!! Just wait till winter by the lake and you will be wishing for the heat!! I think we should start a different thread to find anything Max has ever made not exquisite!!!!

    Very nice........The first time I looked at it, I was impressed with the job on the blade, but thought that I would have chosen different scales. I have gone back and looked at it again, and I couldn't have been more wrong, sublime, Bravo.

    Hello, Str8Shooter:

    Indeed, I admire talent and Max won the lottery there. To take what in essence is a scrap of rusty and stained metal encased in a broken plastic handle and turn it into a majestic straight razor is something to behold. I am grateful for his creation of my first Wade & Butcher, The Max, and now the second, The Maximillian. I am happy.

    On another note, you lived in Shorewood, eh? Great place. Benji's is still there, but the ice cream place is gone. Later today I'll send you a personal message about Shorewood. Thanks for the memories.

    Regards,

    Obie

    Obie one,
    That is one beautiful transformation. But then again, consider who did the transformation, it is not at all surprising. Congratulations on inheriting a Maxterpiece

    Max: You never cease to amaze folks with your magic. Well done maestro
