Mike, that is definitely one of the most beautiful razors I have seen. You have exquisite taste in my opinion.

I second that. The simplicity and cleanliness of the design are quite striking.

The scales are made of an exotic wood called Ambiona and are unfinished. Any woodworkers out there care to suggest a treatment?

Got my first Livi a month ago. Just a blade, I wanted to make the scales myself. I had some particularly nice buckeye burl.
Blade is 8/8 Bergam damasks, my own blade design. Scales are buckeye burl with epoxy resin. I will be turning a matching brush some day. To busy with orders for other folks right now.

I can see another one in my future. I think tekada steel next, maybe shaped like a katana, a smile with a sway back and tanto style point. Make some snake skin scales for it, or traditional leather woven over wood like a katana handle may look interesting. But I have to refinish a few hundred more razors to earn that one.

Cannonfodder: That last pic made me swear out loud in awe. That truly is a tremendous piece of work, on both your parts.

Your skill precedes you with your awesome brushes. Beautiful idea, I like it. Make it a diamondback rattlesnake that you caught yourself, it will mean more. LOL Originally Posted by cannonfodder
