I love those shoulderless blades with thumb notch. They just have smooth flowing lines. Once you get her rescaled, polished up and honed she will look like a million. Very nice find.

Thanks Bob! Glad to see more canucks on here!
I'm thinking ebony scales with a blood red spacer? :)
I am sure "Diamond Steel" was a sales thing!
And another great thing about shoulderless blades they are a pleasure to hone.Quote:

I told her it weren't you.
Brooksie, that's a way cool looking razor!! ( I also think Tom is spot on about the sales gimmick) ;)
Manah, looks like a shouldered version of the razor perhaps? A little different as far as placement of markings as well but, regardless, the razors I am seeing from this company are all eye candy!
2 more pictures for everyone to see! I didn't see the gold wash on the tang/spine from the original pictures but looks like there is some!

Not great pictures and from what I can see there might be some tarnish (hopefully not pitting) along the blade's edge. I'm really hoping that I don't have to take too much steel off this thing :)
Indeed a nice worked back on that one as well!
As to eye candy, here are a couple of knives from Griffon.

Whoever designed these blades had a good sense of what something sharp should look like!
