    Default latest big frameback (ish)

    so i was taken to task with making a big honking razor but i wanted to do it differently
    the blade its self is 1/16 O1 that's been flat ground and 3 3/8 long and edge to spine just over 11/8
    all the screws are 2-56 size and bolt the Ti handles that are wire brushed for texture

    the spacer is red dyed spalted maple burl that has been stabilized

    there is also filed grooving on the top of the spine and under the pivot area
    i ll get more pictures and any info i missed in a bit

    Good grief Charlie Brown!
    You can either shave with that or use it as a brush hog when dragged behind your small tractor!
    Beautiful craftsmanship!!!

    Thats incredible and totally unique!

    It looks lethal..! You dont shave the hairs off with that, you just wave it near your face and it scares the hairs off...!

    Great work!

    Do you hone it the same way as a normal razor? Does the shape of the spine make it any harder to hone?
