I commissioned him to build me a razor and I showed him a couple of pictures of what I liked of his previous work. Told him I'd love to see some green giraffe bone scales and like geometric shapes, and said... it's your baby (he says showing he's smarter than people may think
)
And this is what I got! BEAUTIFUL WORK
Thanks so much Robert!

Why do you have razors leaning against the apple? Don't you use kitchen knives in the kitchen??
BTW: great razors!
Next time you slice an apple use a Zeepk instead if you insist on using a knife that looks like a razor.

Could it be a subliminal message .... trying to tempt us by portraying the razor along with the 'forbidden fruit' ? We mere mortals are always tempted by the forbidden fruit. Originally Posted by Kees

Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
