Williams latest custom
Robert just sent me some pictures of a razor just finished up for a customer. I am very impressed with his metal work and want to share it with the group. The blade has some beautiful engraving on the spine and an 18K gold engraved insert of a narwhal on the shank. The handles are narwhal ivory. The lucky owner has his initials on the top of the shank as well. I am jealous!

Hello, John:
Thank you for post the photo. That razor is exquisite. I dare say one would want to shave five times a day — just to use that razor.
Regards
Obie

I've got a few nice ones myself so as a rule I don't get jealous but I'm envious of that one. Those scales just knock me out. Kudos to RW for his exceptional talent.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
