    Spot on work Shawn!
    Nice crisp lines and no bubbles I can see. I love working with natural materials, and equally love seeing others success with the same.
    Nice work, great weekend case man.
    Now the hard part,, which two razors will be in the kit?

    Talent well applied, thank you.
    May your lather be moist and slick, the sweep of your razor sure, and your edge always keen!

    On the spots where the leather laps it does not transition as nice as I would like. Thinning the leather at the transition point will reduce the appearance. It is very thin leather to start with as it is 2 oz leather it is .8 to 1.5mm thick.

    That looks Great ! Skive would do it. And for some reason a hammer comes to mind. But then mine is always handy :<0) It looks great like it is though.
    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

    Holy crap that turned out nicely. What did you do, say "it puts the lotion on the box" over and over as you made it?
