7/8 crocodile tail custom, black G10 scales
Here is the next member of my first HT razor package! http://badgerandblade.com/vb/images/.../001_smile.gif
The blade is made from O1 at about 60-61HRC, mirror polish and about quarter grind, scales are black G10 with the same black G10 glued wedge.
This was the first time I worked with G10, but I really like how it came out. It can be polished nicely, but the terrible itching isn't the nicest afterwards http://badgerandblade.com/vb/images/.../thumbdown.gif Next time I will be wearing gloves too, not just a respirator and closed clothing.

I like working with wood better, but I must admit that shynth stuff is much easier to work with. I am sure that I will be making some stuff out of jade G10 too, I have bought a few pieces which will be enough for maybe 3 razors.
Please let me know how you like this one! http://badgerandblade.com/vb/images/.../001_smile.gif Feel wise I like this razor the best from those I have made.
