    Default J. A. Henckels in Honduran Rosewood

    My Henckels is one of my favorite shavers and I just felt it deserved a nicer set of scales than the simple plastic ones it came with. I accordingly made a new set of scales out of Honduran rosewood with a purpleheart wedge. This was my second CA project and my first project using rosewood. I really like the look of the rosewood and as I posted in my lessons learned thread (see here), the rosewood was easy to work with.

    Thanks for reading. Enjoy.

    Very nice fit and finish. Beautiful grain and color to the wood as well.
