    Default My take on the Mappin Lancet, in ivory

    A while back I was contacted with a request to make a Mappin Lancet but change it up a little.
    I thought it would be pretty cool! So even though it took longer then it should have and I donated a good bit of steel to the junk pile... her she is..
    7/8, the frame is 01 tool steel and the blade is a low layer pattern welded steel.
    The scales are ivory with silver pins. To keep thing looking somewhat old, I used a lead wedge.
    Soon to be packed up and headed out.

    Brian, very nice. This is a very interesting razor.

    How is the blade held in the frame?

    Great Work.

    Whoah! The Lancet was a one piece affair! This is surely a custom frameback! Awesome vision as well as workmanship!

    Yeah, a Mappin & Webb Lancet was one piece forged and ground to the shape we are familiar with . I had one at one time and it was impressive workmanship. Nice job on your version of it.

    Thats a stunning razor. Well done! Would it be hard to make a removable blade frameback al la leCoultre?
