full 1" and I cant even see a bevel or hone wear! The blade appears to be in almost new condition, the cheap acrylic scales will be replaced with proper horn and lead wedge with dome collars when it arrives.

I tried uploading pics but they turned out super small so I just added the link.

I saw that one and was going to place a bid on it and though, nah, don't need another one, figured it being an FBU it would go through the roof as well - price you got it, doesn't get any better than that...congrats.

I was fully expecting it to go way higher myself! Even upped my bid in the last couple minutes to curve snipes lol. Thanks, I can't wait to get a shave with it.

New arrival.

haha, Well it arrived today, what the pics didn't show (not to my eye anyway) is its had about an 1/8 inch honed off the toe , it keeps a full 1" width till about the last 3/4" of the toe then it slowly tapers to just over 7/8. I couldn't help myself, I removed the cheap, uneven acrylic scales and too it to the buffer for a slight polish.

It's smiley, won't hurt a thing

Witch might sons similar to' you better listed, or I'll give you the best shave you ever had.

Well the camel bone blanks I ordered to wrap her in showed up today. After a couple hours of work I have come to the conclusion I much prefer the ease of working with horn over bone, but the bone does have a beautiful appeal that I really like once polished and buffed. Both smell GAWD AWFUL though!! Anyway here are some after pics

I went with the original chopper style with small domed washers, both scales and wedge are camel bone. Although I can't for the life of me figure out how to get these pics right side up
