You sure are one resourceful guy! I'm grinning from ear to ear now knowing that the razor you made me was forged in a turkey cooker! I guess that's the secret as to why it's my best shaving razor

I can speak for Bob's work first hand, I'm working on one of his razors as we speak and it is a beauty. I can wait to get it finished and get some pics up to share.
