Boker Damascus 7 Day set the community built.

Yes its true , I tried but needed help.
First thanks are in order.
Sharpton you made #7 happen.Tom without you and your skills I would be stuck at 6
Engine46 Steve you are a great hunting partner and the best bird dog on the net. # 6 is named after you.
Gooser A gracious soul who gifted me a blade out of the blue and the kindness of your heart. Thank-you
10Pups who pulled me into this site after I was making a mess out of wet shaving and without you none of this would have started.
The envelope and pictures to prove it happened by these members help.

I had to Google it.
To the best of my newbie knowledge they are " French points" And coming from you:chapeau
You have shown me such a vast array of blades you have encouraged and schooled me from your collection.

Yes Sir, Thank-you in public for the best pinning job. Bakelite had me soiling my shorts. You saved the project.

I'm not sure you can call the guy that put together a 7 Day Set of Boker Damascus Straight Razors a 'newbie' anymore!
Awesome set and nice case to go with them. Well done!

Thank-you. I find that just when I make progress in one area, I call upon the Mentors and the community to help me work through things I have no skill in.
As for the case, its a drawer of a chest, a guy can dream right?

What I lack in current skills, I am inspired by others skills and Mcguyver something to fit. An old Gestner Machinist Chest seemed to just fit.

Glad to see you got that set complete.
You have done great buddy ! Don't short suit yourself. You have come a long way.
Anybody that knows you knows, your a giving guy yourself. What goes around comes around in here. And goes around again somewheres ;<0)

The box is perfect and I see it has plenty of room for more :w Unless like mine, they are full of work to do.
