Last but one 7/8 Classic round point custom
I had two classic looking razor blanks left out of my second HT package to finish, this is one of them. I am happy that I started my razor making journey with a few full customs and a few very classic looking razors, because I have learned a lot while making them. Sizes, proportions, thicknesses, balance, everything you could think of. This one is from O-1, 7/8 in size, scales are brazilian rosewood, wedge is african blackwood, and the pins are double stacked SS washer with silver-nickel pins.
This is the second time I worked with brazilian rosewood, but I am very pleased with it. Very dense and hard wood, but it sands really easily, and polished well. I would recommend this wood to anyone who wants to makes his first restore/rescale/custom, because it is really nice looking, and is relatively cheap.
I am almost sure this is my last razor before Christmas, but stay tuned, I am in the midst of finishing two very nice razors, which I hope you will like a lot!
Here are the pics, please let me know how you like it! :)
