8/8 in Blue & White Mokume

This one is headed out today.
8/8 French point with a bit on a longer tail, jimps top/bottom and some simple file work on the spine and tail.
Scales are Blue & White Mokume with a green & pearl wedge, silver pins with small silver washers.
This is kind of a redo.. We had a idea of the blade shape but wasn't set on the scales material.
As the blade was finishing up the decision was made the scales. We both thought the blade design with the Mokume he wanted, would make for to "busy" a look.
So we decided on a more subtle blade design.
I really like the way it came together. The simple blade look really at home with the busy scales.

Very nice Brian. I can see where a more complicated blade could become busy. That is part of the quality that comes with you services. Awesome job once again.

Wow, that is what I call a serious spine:)
It looks great, thanks for sharing.
I have a couple custom razors already, but this one made me want at least one more;)

I too like the way it came together. What a looker. Are you using 3/16 or 1/4" stock out of curiosity?

Stunning to say the least.... LOVE seeing people bring on that ol' French Point! The monkey tail is really a nice and unusual touch as well.

Bravo :bow

Awesome sir, I dig the M3, While it is a little expensive, it works very easily and produces a great finish and fantastic patterns. Kudos!
