Beautiful, Robert. That's just gotta be a wonderful shaver.
Wow! I love that crosshatching on the spine. The sort of modified French point is very nice as well. Well done as always.
rs,
Tack
Thats a beauty! Is the blade pierced clean through that the stone is visible from both sides?
No. I used a mirrored metal approach to reflect light from the sides, underneath and back through. It's a brilliant display even though there is no drill hole all the way through the tang. That would have been the easiest way but I didn't feel it was the right way. This way, there is no possibility of rust developing inside the setting because the steel is not exposed.
Although I am not a fan of the jewel being in it (it is beautiful not trying to take away from that), the blade design and look is a really awesome site.
Very nice work and thanks for sharing that beauty.
It is indeed a treasure to behold Robert. Your love of your craft has left the world of straight razor shaving a much better place than you found it. Many lucky members here will certainly smile when one of your SRP razors pops up in their rotation.
Fantastic blade. Very stylish beauty queen. Great job.
