    Default Damascus and streaked horn 8/8

    Todays work...

    1084 and 15N20 damascus, 1/4 hollow a hair under 8/8

    Scales are streaked buffalo horn, wedge and pins are Nickel/Silver, there are brass pivot washers installed. The white spacers in the wedge are vulcanized fiber.

    Thanks for looking, comments welcome!

    I cannot imagine anything that could be done to make that straight razor better. The flow ties the damascus and the horn together perfectly. It is a beauty. Very well done.

    That turned out great, Pierre. The streaked horn scales really work and you already know how much I like the look of that damascus.

    Great looking razor Pierre! The horn is amazing and really goes well with the damascus, and the wedge just sets the whole package off
