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

OOOOHH MY GOD!!!!! That thing is beautiful.........Looks industrial,, like it belongs in a Snap-On Box. GREAT JOB!!!

i already told you it looks good in the big blades thread :P

just a question...how do you hone that sucker!? it looks like the pointy part of the spine(?) would interfere.


but i do love the way it looks when it's closed!

Good and beautiful work. It would be desirable to shave such razor =). From what steel is it made?

Soooooooooo Can we call it the Latherman :D:D:D

Absolutely outta this world workmanship, Butch

Wow, beautiful lines. looks great both open and closed.

Great design.

to hone i tape off the spine and then hold at an angle so the pointy part is off the stones

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!!!

i see. So the heel doesn't get sharpened?

its all in how you look at it

haha wow...i'm surprised i didn't understand that

Awesome razor again i dont know how you do it but you continue to come up with something wilder each and every time you make another razor butch i think steven segall wants this one

WOW!!!... Beautiful... I bet she will shave as good as she looks.
If you don't mind, may I suggest... grind a hone relief at the pointy part.

Another interesting design.
I favor more traditional designs (preferably with curved blade and tang) but your designs are certainly very creative.

Fantastic:bow:bow:bow:bow is all I can say

Wow!!!!! That is nice. You out do yourself every time!

Ok, I just had to bump this one back to life... Wow!!!

looks like something that would shave a grove of redwoods. have you tryed her yet? hows the shave?

Cool maker-friendly design! No need to hollow grind!

Cool design and build. Now you're really thinkin outside the box. In fact you just blew the box to smitherenes!

That is the coolest razor I have ever seen !

Cool and certainly different !

UNBELIEVABLE PIECE OF STEEL

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...! :D

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?

Beautiful, Butch... simply awesome :nj
