    Wow. Awesome. You have done an excellent job.
    I like the scale shape and the pinning is very tidy.

    That thread is in the Workshop sticky now too...
    Thanks Glen,

    I was thinking of adjusting the scales, but I'm not sure it will solve the problem.

    In the pic below I put in a green line to better show how the blade should be and a red to show where it is, as you can see the problem is that the spine is twisted.
    I managed to make it little better, but I didn't want to push my luck in fear of the tang breaking if I used too much power.

    Sweet work especially the scales. They look so modern / sleek to be holding a Sheffield style blade. Nice going, sir. Very well executed and nice staging for the photos.

    Great work! It's really like giving second life to the razor.
