This is a TI rescale in Pre-ban Elephant Ivory with a Turquoise (recon) wedge built as asked with NiAg pins and the smallest SS washers, there are Brass internal bearing washers in there of course... I used a standard TI pattern as requested, tried to get the best part of the Ivory to show..
I just love the simplicity of the look...

Not at all Mike it is Recon Turquoise that you can get at Masecraft and I am sure tons of other places, which means they take real Stone and mix and blend it with a resin and it comes out much like a Micarta or Acrylic to work, the only bad thing is it doesn't much like shock and can crack easy if you hit it wrong...Quote:

One of these days I'll work up the gumption to own one of Glen's beautiful razors like this one. Awesome work, Glen! :tu
Could you build a lightsaber for me?
Build it ???? I don't know, but I bet. I can put a slick looking handle and a wicked edge on it :rofl2:Quote:

Naw Jamie :( it is heading out in the morning,, But I will remember the combination that Roman came up with :nj
Very classy & true to the TI shape. :tu
Had the pleasure of doing the edge on one of these just recently. One of my fave steels.
I really like the wedge/scales colors. Sets off the razor very nicely!!
Clean and elegant, the Turquoise wedge looked surprisingly good :nj
Great work , the razor the sales the wedge all blended together in a great combo.
Very nice! Gotta get some ivory in my life one of these days!

The ivory really sets off the blade without taking away from its beauty.
The Turquoise (recon) wedge.... AWESOME choice !!!
Someone is going to be loving that blade big time.
Fine work once again Glen! Always impressive and a classy fit to that blade with just a touch of flair.
Very nice! The ivory and turquoise go together really well!

The razor had DI scales originally but I already have one with DI; I was able to source some nice pre-ban Ivory and the rest is history.
Glen is super nice to work with and executed my vision perfectly. The end result is superb now I got a real family heirloom.
Forever grateful,
Roman
Here is the razor with its sisters :)
