    Beautiful! What did you use as a contrasting agent for the wood?

    I like it . . . I like it a lot! I would describe it as having a "strong elegance." It is beautiful and solid. I love the burl also. Very well done.

    Now that's a handsome razor! very sophisticated looking to say the least, and nice attention to detail. Great set of scales and the pinning goes perfectly with it.

    Great addition to any collection.

    Very nice looking blade and an even more amazing piece of burl! Great work all the way around.

    Thanks! This particular burl growth was very dense and contained the natural contrast you see here. I did of course polish it. In this case, I Hut. They make a liquid wood turning sealer and polish that is for all practical purposes clear. It did make the colors pop. I know folks sometimes use coffee grounds but no need in this case. Best Regards Ken

    Fine work again Ken. Very nice use of the timber, looks stunning. I like the little brass inserts in the tail, very cool.

    Thanks for sharing.
