9/8 French point dressed in Cobaltium Mokume Gane
This is a 9/8 French point with some file work, longer tail and slightly curved tang. Grind is a little hollower than 1/4 hollow. Steel is O1. Scales are M3 Mokume Gane Cobaltium with silver nickel pins and silver nickel/brass washers. Has been tapered with a G10 Hunter Orange wedge. Have a great Sunday.

It is beautiful Max. Thanks for sharing. The file work on the end of the tail is a nice touch.

That is a beautiful blade. I really like the look of the longer tail, especially with that file work in it.

Make razor, take pictures, send to Charlie for testing, I am pretty sure those are the correct steps to follow.
I too like the subtle work on the tail, that is a beautiful razor.

Beautiful work as usual Max. Some one will be extremely happy and surprised at how good a shaver you put out.

Max,
After taking a third look
I have to ask, Did you make the stair stepped washers or do you have a source for those? I like the way those look.

I just stack them with the #0 wide and #0 sized washers from micro-fastners. Depending the stacked look I go with brass/ss/brass or ss/brass/ss. Pins will be silver nickel or brass, again depending the blending and or look I'm aiming for. The rest is all hand peening/buffing to get them to look the way you see. One can use 3 or 2 layered.
