    Beautiful work, Ryan. I find the lines of the scales make for a very clean and different look.

    That's great work, and resourceful use of the tools available. Will you get a chance to heat-treat it?

    How's the balance? Are you going to make a shim for honing it? Which forums recommend a 12 degree angle? Here's an example of some data this forum collected some time ago: http://straightrazorpalace.com/razor...tml#post464472

    In any event good on you for giving it a go!

    I consulted a few forums during research, it may have been someone at badger and blade? Im not entirely sure. The balance to be quite honest isn't perfect. The scales have some weight to them but I plan to correct this in future models. Thanks for the link I will check that out for sure!
