Thanked: 13246Wade & Butcher - Marbleized :)
So Mr. Dustoff actually sent me two razors...
The JR here
And a sweet 6/8 W&B Hollow Grind, I polished this one to a step higher and got a near perfect Satin Glow Finish..
Ed asked me for Marble so I special ordered this acrylic in and got on the phone and asked for a near even mix of the Black to the White normally this stuff is mostly Pearl White with just a few splashes of the Black...
The scales are right at .115 the wedge is a thin ..050 at the end, made from the exact reverse of the scales so a Black marble, Polished using 3M from 400-8000
The pins are NiAg with double stacked SS washers, internal bearing washers are Brass..
Honing = Chosera 1-5-10, Select Grade Coticule Finsh...
wait for it MuhahahahaaLast edited by gssixgun; 04-11-2013 at 07:10 PM.

Thanked: 13246Just something extra
Ok so I was having fun making the outside shop look like it was snowing turning the Acrylic, and I had just a touch extra... Now way back when my friend Nelson aka Bayamontate had sent me two knots both were Finnish Pure Black Badger.. I used one for a brush I made for myself (Thanks Nelson).. Now I have this hangup that if you are gifted something, it is just wrong to sell it -BUT- you can "Pass it Forward"
So Ed as a special Thank You for your Service...
This is a small travel brush I made for ya
93mm OAL loft 53mm with a 15mm Pure Black Badger Knot should have a nice "Scritchy" feel to it
And the full set
Thanks for lookingLast edited by gssixgun; 04-11-2013 at 07:33 PM.

Getting up from the floor now I just fell out of my chair! Holy cow I cannot thank you enough for everything. Nelson thanks for the indirect gift of a wonderful BB knot turned into a one of a kind brush.
