    Default Big Swede in white

    Picked this one up a few weeks ago, the razor was in pretty good shape exept for a frown in the blade and terrible looking scales (the scales weren't damaged, just plain, ugly black plasic, me don't like)

    I forgot to take before pics so you justbhave to take my word for it

    It's a 7/8 SSA wedge, as you can see in the last pic it's not much hollowing

    I took out the frown and set a bevel to it before I teared it down and started working on it..

    The blade is lightly buffed, from 320 greaseless up to jewellers rouge, scales in white G10 with an open red G10 wedge, pinned with nickel silver on brass washers.








    Thanks for looking!

    That's a striking Swedish beauty, Zephyr, and I love that red wedge. Gives that razor a nice visual pop!

    Beautiful looking razor, i love the way the wedge is slightly exposed, plus the whole balance of the pinning and the scales are spot on. Great work.
