    Congratulations! You are going to love the smooth edge from your Escher. What is the scale material for your Zowada? Mine is purple heartwood. Pictures, please!

    Thanks, man.
    The scales are Bocote, you can see it in the classifieds.

    It sounds like your really scored. Congratulations!

    How about posting a photo or two of your new razors sometime in the near future to feed my RAD?

    Take care...

    Your razor is identical to mine except for the scale material. It is very, very hard steel; but you certainly have the perfect hone to sharpen and smooth the edge of your Zowada. That's a real Sunday shaver; I don't often use mine for fear of accident!
