That's looks amazing.

Off to the hones for the wonderedge now. This was my first time doing a bolster transfer onto wood. And I will say some lessons were learned during this process. The Australian mallee burl was like...

Quite literally honored by all the replies guys. Really means a lot.

P.S.- That solder job is on point.

SatinWedge is finished and is off to the hones. Really happy with how this one turned out. The camera didn't pick up the iridescence that well. But you can see it in the reflection pretty good. Happy...

Yeah Shaun I'm really glad I caught it. Imagine what it'd look like if it was left in a box for a year or so. It woulda been toast for sure. I plan on a very light sanding with like 1200 grit or...

Gonna wait a day for the epoxy to set on the SatinWedge scales. But just about done with them, quick sanding to clean up and excess epoxy cause I'm a slob and got it everywhere 'per usual. Will post...

Great work Bruno!!

Not glued yet but it will be a ca glue up. Adding enough layers to sort of encase the bolster. The end result should make it look like its part of the scales after sanding and polishing.

I finally got the stiches out yesterday so I can finally start working again. I ended up going to the hospital, and they decided due to the location a couple stiches were in order. So I have my hand...

Super cool mike, can't wait to see it all done up.

Oh nooooo, when reading the first part, I literally couldn't scroll down for a minute. I was waiting to see a blade in half, least it can be reshaped. But dang that is unfortunate. I feel for you...

Yeah just a good soak in acetone and they pretty much fall off.

P.S.-Getting 'em off that's the easy part. Making them look like they belong on a new set of scales. That's where it gets tricky,...

Got the bolsters off the cracked/broken scales, so now to start working on the new ones. I'm working around an injury from work, got a real nasty cut in the webbing of my hand, and it keeps opening...

I've had the last couple days off so been able to work on a few projects that were kinda stacking up. The brush handle I got from ColoradoRazorDesigns needed a bigger knot so was able to set that...

Should be ready to cut out and finish sanding/polishing by this time tomorrow. Got a little work left do on the Rawson Brother's razor (sorry no picture), I know it doesn't exist lol. Going with a...

Mail call today, so got to play around a little after work. The transparent acrylic cut a lot better than I was thinking it was going to. Got a bunch of different colors to play around with and the...

I am in love!!

Wow that is sure a bummer, I'm real sorry man.

The nagura falls out for sure, but the main stone is press fit. I think they call it a french fit or something like that. It also stays closed fairly well, so not sure I need the latch but my dad...

Not exactly my finest work, the inside could use more fine tuning. But it's box like, and is made out of wood, so I'm gonna call it a success. I also learned a lot, so when I go to attempt this again...

Very cool, I strop between hones as well. :rock:

I've been away for a bit and am new to your strops Paul. What kind of material are you using, is it like a nylon webbing type thing, cotton, or a canvas linen thing. Just curious, they look really...

The 1/2 inch chisel is shaving sharp, not sure how well you can actually see the edge on it. :shrug: The one inch is one of my junk tools, so pretty sure I like chiseled steel with it or something....

I'm bored, so decided to try my hand at making a little wooden hone box. No idea how I'm gonna chisel out the little nook for the nagura stone, but darn it I am committed to this little thing. I'm...

Honed and test shaved the Parker Pr after some light scale work. Someone decided to use a 1/8" bolt for the pivot and gouged it to hell so put a little work filling the hole so I could use regular...
