    Both the blade and the scales are beautiful. I like the lines and designs of your razors.

    I love the stabilizer. Where did you find the tank steel?

    The old Leopard 1 tanks where destroyed some time ago here in Germany. So from time to time it is possible to buy some steel from it. A friend of mine had this opportunity and forged this pattern welted steel for me. This is the second from 3 blanks I had.
