    Default I present you! Coboduck

    Hi all,

    just finished this razor today.
    Got this blade (scaleless) because of a trade.
    The blade is 13/16 wide.


    Then bought a satinedge on the bay for the scales (the blade was a gonner).
    After an inspection the scales too were a gonner (cellrot).
    The inlays I could use, so I decided to make the scales out of cocobolo and finish them with CA.

    This is the result







    Now it's going to see my coticule..
    Any comments are certainly welcome, as I love good criticism.

    Man! That is nice work! Great way to use original components and custom work as well! Turned out sweet!

    You did a fantastic job with the bolsters and inlays. Just excellent, really.

    And I love the contrast between the inlay and the cocobolo. Nice choice

    That is wonderfully beautiful. I am so impressed with the level of craftsmanship around here.
    Don't get hung up on hanging hairs.
