    He will readily admit that he does not know what he is making until it comes together, I think. An artist!
    I have seen it happen in his youtube videos. He draws stuff on his steel blank, kinda randomly, and then doesn't follow it. Ha! I love it. You're right though, he is an artist. He does things that no one else does, and maybe they try and mimic it, but I've never seen anyone duplicate it. Some of his blades aren't for me, but most I really like.
    Burls, Girls, and all things that Swirl....

    I saw an interview with him once (Charlie can come off quite dry, but he is far from that!).
    Has a bucket under the belt that contains those with which he lost inspiration or figured he had totaled.
    He revisits the bucket from time to time with new inspiration.
    Reckon my razor is possibly one of those?

    I think he has lots of irons in the fire. No doubt he will be making some razors soon!


    (If you see this, sorry Charlie! )
    "Don't be stubborn. You are missing out."
    I rest my case.

    After spending a few days with Charlie, that is what he explained to me too, just works on it till he gets it done. Upon wanting to quit on my razor after a boo boo, Charlie told me this and I,ll never forget it " I've never made a mistake on a razor, I just make a smaller razor" or something to that effect. But he really doesn't have a plan he just starts hammering. And ya he's not really dry and anti social, he's really a softie, and super cool guy, that doesn't like banana pudding. Tc
