This puppy arrived today. It's very wedgy and currently the biggest razor I own.
I like the forms - curvy, flowing & smiling
Now I need to make up my mind on its new scales
Cheers

Those big sheffields look great in giraffe bone scales.

And I suspect they'd look good in oryx scales as well.

True, true
However, I have another beautiful 6/8 JR in pink ivory and am thinking of getting the same for this one.
On the other hand, I have no olivewood and I really love it...
Hard to decide
Cheers

Hey Ivo if you want I'll send you some meranti wood for free.
Wayne D recently posted pictures of a restoration he did with the wood I sent him.
Let me know if you like it & want some.
1-1/16" :eek: That calls for a demo video!

The mere heft of the razor has me worried a bit - how to balance it - so I am now also entertaining thoughts about abalone or MOP...
Thanks again!

Great score Ivo :tu I also like olivewood. If I were you, I'd consider metal liners to add some heft to the scales.
Video? I'd settle for some pics!Quote:
