    Default 7/8+ American Knife FBU in paper micarta

    After struggling with resin (setting off too fast or not at all) I finally got a mixture that works perfect for me.
    The scales came out at .100 and they are coticule coloured, beige with blue/black liner.
    The razor I picked up off ebay recently and had it sent to Dylan (Holli4Pirating) for some very mild steel wool and honing (fine edge Dylan!)
    I decided to leave the razor "as is" so the etch stays in tact.
    Thanks for looking!

    Glad to hear she made it, and very nice work on the scales. I actually didn't recognize her at first.

    I agree--love the shape of the razor. And I like the color and texture of the scales. Classy looking razor!
