    Gorgeous looking razor you got there mate. I'm astounded that someone could produce such a beautiful razor on their first attempt. I can only wish and envy having such artistic and technical talent.

    Merci pour avoir partager votre oeuvre d'art!

    Il est étonnant que la première tentative de faire une lame pourrait se révéler si bien: c'est une oeuvre d'art, mon ami!

    Je vous remercie pour le partage

    The shape of the blade is very balanced, the grind from the pics looks even.
    Scales and blade shape match nicely.

    Great job man.
