8/8's split tail custom
Here's the latest model fresh out of the OCD Research & Development Dept.
She's an 8/8's swayback with large jimps top and bottom, even some baby jimps on the tail. Grind is full hollow with a mirror finish. Heel and toe are sculpted out.
Scales are black and white ebony with 3 pins
As always, thanks for looking

No sweat, Bob! Luck has NOTHING to do with it! I have faith in you! An edge to follow your lovely spines will be something to behold. (I would come and help! Originally Posted by boballman

Beautiful razor. I love the proportions, craftsmanship and scales. Only wish I had one tenth of the talent to produce a razor like that. My respect and high regard are not easily earned, but you have both of them in spades!

I like the design a lot, especially the jimps and the tail. That is a good looking razor.
Some day, if I play my cards right, and lead a virtuous life, I will work for OCD R&D. Originally Posted by boballman
