    Default Pile of Henckels in buffalo and amboyna

    I have been conspicuously absent from the forums for some time now. I am so busy with my hobby wood working that I rarely get time to spend here. I just finished up a dozen razors most of which are in buffalo horn. Some of these have some very nice color in them and they took a very nice shine. All of the buffalo horn have Tasmanian blackwood wedges. Most of them are big 8/8 Spanish point worked spine monsters with a few 7/8 square point. The two Amboyna scales have a high gloss epoxy resin finish and have black ash burl wedges.

    That's a beautiful thing, all those razors going back on the line to serve.
    Thank you for taking the time to share them with us.

    They are for an on-line vendor. I have more than a few razors in my existing rotation. Think I am up to a 80 day set at this point.

    Nice work. I should do something like that for my 7/8 Friodur with plastic scales.

    Great job cannon, and glad to have you back
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    I would be more than happy with "just" these ten. Darn, that is nice work!
