Thread: Custom Straight Razor 8/8 Enter the Dragon

Hello,

Thought I would post a few photos of a razor that I just finished up. I decided to use a material that some of you may be aware of called, C-tek made by Composite Craft Inc. It was originally designed for the aircraft industry. Expensive stuff but has a very cool look to it. It can be a little tricky to work with at least as it pertains to razor scales. I am not sure it has been used for this purpose as of yet, scales that is. Perhaps this is the first. Anyway, the razor is 8/8 with a smile and made from o1 steel. There is some spine and tail file work, left the fire scale in the recesses for contrast. Decided to go for a 3D effect and made one side green and the other red. I think it looks pretty cool. Let me know what you think of it. I really enjoyed the shave.

Have a good week!

Best Regards, Ken

Now that's just plain cool Ken! That scale material looks awesome!

I really like the scale material as well, and the scale left in the recesses really sets it off.

Thanks for putting out here for us to admire.

My jaw just droped. That is just to clean. Very very nice work

Love it !
Take me back to Hong Kong.

At first I thought it was an Alex Jacques. Kinda small blade isn't it....?

I can't shave with anything less than 10/8th's.

Just kidding....Nice work.

awesome looking scales both design and material

Everything is amazing. Love te design and vhoice of material and contact tone scales was a great idea. Only thing that throws me a off a little are the spines on the tail. They look incredible but in your opinion do they effect your grip? If so for better or worse? Cool idea either way.

Just....wow.....you can have precisely all my money now.

WOW!! That's impressive to say the least! Well done!
