This is why I like to keep it as a hobby... I don't have to worry about the customers!

I think most guys understand that "things can happen" during restoration that aren't always desirable. Its all about risks vs. rewards... ;) Seems like everyone in the community is very laid back, understanding, and extremely patient.... yes...patience is probably the most common thread in the straight razor community... I think it says a little something about the type of people that this hobby draws in.

Beautiful work once again Brad! Your work with horn always impresses :bow

I particularly like the way that turned out.
Very Nice!!

Agreed, very nice.

Now that's SEXY!!!
