    Default Boker King Cutter

    Bear with me guys, this is another practice one off the new buffers. On this one, I tried a satin finish on the blade, but I also tried to polish out the tang a bit more. I went to 600 greaseless on the blade and then CrOx, while on the tang I went through black emery, white rouge and CrOx. I need more work and practice on the emery....good thing a few more blades are on their way in the mail! Scales are rosewood, wedge is bone, and pins/microfasteners are standard brass.

    Anyway....it sure is lots of fun buffing....

    Very nice work,, The more you play around with the sequence the more you can bring out the finish you like...

    Looks absolutely gorgeous, if that razor were a lady I would try my hardest to suduce her.

    Dude! I really like your work. And the fact that you've got enough cohibas in your humidor to use some as furniture is pretty awe inspiring as well!

    If you'd post a link to a larger version of that last pic, my computer desktop would be most grateful!!

    Nice Job Nate!!!
