    Glen is working on some more which shouldn't be too far away, so I will post pics of those when available. There will be a WB anchor, American razor and a few others
    It's nice to be important, but more important to be nice

    Very nice! I like the one in bone also. It reminds me of this one I did in bone with a brass wedge!

    Actually Steve, it was your rescale of that razor (similar blade shape) that inspired me to try a set of thin bone scales on my W&B. I may go even thinner than the 2mm or 5/64 on the next set.

    Cool Wirm. That makes me feel good. Thank you for the compliment. You can do it & they will still be strong. Those ones I made are very strong even as thin as they are!

    Two razors brought back to life by Valery from the Gentleman's Den. His work, as always, speaks for itself!

    One an eBay grab for a very low price, looked in bad shape, but turned out beautifully I think.

    Wade and Butcher's Celebrated Double Swaged Concave Razor, Genuine Fine India Steel, Set Ready For Use & Universally Approved.

    Here is the before pic:

    And from one of the best places on the planet to get fine straight razors, the SRP Classifieds, this was a blade only sale, a W&B, Celebrated Hollow Ground Razor, For Barber's Use, with black bone scales.

    +1. Val polished it with appropriate, not excessive, elbow grease.
    Nice lines AF!

    Enjoy.
