    Default Excitement!!!! Tim Zowada Custom started.

    Late last year I contatced Mr Zowada about doing a custom razor.Basic design is a Damascus steel blade with an Ebony hidden tang with white and black horn scales. Mr Zowada has had to gather the ore and make the steel. Here is the blade at a middle stage. Hardness tested to 62 HRC. Man I can't wait to see the finished piece and shave with a true craftsman piece of art.

    That should be horn scales.

    Also, it's going to be a French point.

    What a curse be a dull razor; what a prideful comfort a sharp one
