    Default OCD Custom "What's old is new"

    She is an 8/8 swayback with large jimps top and bottom, French point with a bit of a tail. The grind is full hollow, but I left it a little on the meaty side, at about 15/1000. The finish is a quick dip in hot acid, just to give it an aged and uncared-for look, the rest of the metal I gave a slight melting with a torch to roughen it up as well.

    The scales are bone with a three color dye job, then a nice buffing. The photos may not show but these are REALLY pretty, they may be my favorite scales to date.

    For those of you who like to restore old razor to look like new and want to ask me why???????

    The answer is "I don't know"

    as always, thanks for looking
