Bartmann in Galactic Copper
I picked up this Bartmann a short while ago.
The blade was is decent shape but the scales looked pretty shot.
So I thought I try a little something different.
The scales are mostly the same as Mokume Gane but made from a single metal instead of 2. These are Galactic Copper. Took a bit to get the look I wanted but I like the way they came out.

Thanked: 46Nice colour combination, it's a nice piece. How did you seal the copper to stop it from corroding? Lacquer or varnish of some sort?

Thanked: 114You're killing me. I'm trying to get my various ADs under control. It didn't occur to me until reading this that copper can be used as a scale material - heck, I hadn't ever heard of "Galactic Copper" until now. This opens up so many more possibilities to feed my disorder. Thanks a whole lot, pal. :-) :-) Awesome looking razor though. Great job!
