    Default 8/8 pattern welded steel with desert ironwood

    Hello Folks,

    some new stuff is ready for showing. This razor is a "little" 8/8 with monkey tail from pattern welded steel. How you can see at the monkey tail, the whole razor was forged in shape - no stock removal. The handle is from nice desert ironwood burl on a red liner to preserve it from cracks. At least the wedge is from mammoth ivory. Hope you will like it

    Great looking piece. I am scratching my head on something...by 'no stock removal' are referring to the shape of the razor and tail blank, then you grind it, or do you mean that you actually forged the profile also?

    Thanks for the education.

    That is a truly beautiful piece!
