    Beautiful razor. The Micarta is very well done. I like the contrast between the satin and bright finish. I also want to compliment you on the pinning. Exceptionally fine job. Any pointers for achieving that result on the pins would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the post.

    Agreed on the micarta. I think it looks a lot richer than the G10 would.
    I'm a sucker for a stamped tail. Giggity.

    It's funny that I am old school on so many fronts...I don't own a smart phone and I have never sent or received a text message...but i don't use pins. I use folder pivots which are 2 screws and a barrel nut. I assemble and disassemble many times during construction, and I like the idea that they can be EASILY taken apart for cleaning etc... and if they get loose, just a quick snug with a torx wrench.

    Okay, you have piqued and tantalized my interest! So let's have the skinny. More pictures of the pins/pivots and information on your source for purchasing them. I am familiar with folder pivots from when I was a teacher and put together a syllabus for the class. But I have never heard of such pivots being made so small. I have seen micro hex head fasteners but have never personally cared for them. So give!!!
