    I just finished these handles, and am really liking the results so far.

    I tried one out with some AOS lavender oil and cream, and finished with a hearty splash of Clubman.


    Good stuff!

    There are some wonderful vibrant colours within those scales, you've done an excellent job making those scales.

    Thank you. I agree the wood is amazing. I sought help from a friend who is quite skilled for the cutting and drilling. I still am working on the final polishing. They just keep getting prettier.

    Crisp clean comfortable cold water face lathered shave. I can see why Boker King Cutters were popular around here. A very very good razor and a joy to use. Have a peaceful Sunday.
