    Very nice!

    I don't mean to pry, but do you happen to know what the scales are made of? The texture of the inside makes me think micarta with the exterior carved to give it that distinctive appearance.

    I must buy a Lewis razor, life has no meaning without it, but I can find them only in SRD and there is very little in sale to choose

    I want one BAD too. I've been eyeballin his fixed blades for some time now. I'll have one in the future, that's for sure.

    When I do decide to pull the trigger on one, I'll probably PM Charlie and tell him exactly what I want. That's the way to do it I think.

    To the OP, I love your razor. Charlies work is one of my favorites in the custom razor department. Every time I see one I drool! Enjoy it!

    Beautiful razor! Maybe one day I'll join the "Lewis" club. I hope you enjoy it for years to come.

    Smart buy. Lewis razors are a work of art and a fine tool all wrapped into one handsome package.
    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

    Wow-That is truly a one of a kind razor. I got to see and handle several of his wicked blades at the Asheville meetup. A true artist and a nice guy too!

    After meeting Charlie I think a buried side of his personality comes forth in his work,
    and I have to say I like that side.

    Gorgeous piece mixing rough and refined, the way the scales pick up on the more natural forged sections.

    And those jimps. stunning detail, an awesome heirloom, one of a kind for sure.

    Great piece of art Charlie!
    It is just Whisker Whacking
    Relax and Enjoy!
