Newly Restored W&B
Sorry for the lousy pictures. I'll take some better ones when I get a chance.
I asked Josh Earl to re-grind and re-scale my 6/8 W&B.
The scales are Wenge, I thought I'd set it in the sun to try to highlight the grain and color of this beautiful wood. The spacer is bone. The super lustrous finish is CA. Nickel pins complete the re-scaling.
The re-grind did the blade wonders.
It shaves wonderfully and is well balanced in my hand.
My thanks to Josh for his fine craftsmanship.

Very nice! But I've spotted an invisible flaw, please send it to me for safe disposal!
