Man oh man
Gents.
I just have to to tell someone about my most recent purchases.
Yesterday I got a NOS Escher Yellow/green hone, and today I managed to snag a Zowada 7/8 Damascus 1/4 Hollow Spanish Point (my first Custom) from our own classified section.
Gosh, I am just so excited about this.
I will post pictures of both of these two fine acquisitions as soon as they arrive.
I'm thinking in SOTD.
Both of the items are from members of this forum, and that really makes me feel safe about the whole thing.
It made my Paypal account take a standing 8-count, but man am I happy right now.
Phew, good to get that off my chest, now to focus on my first Friday Beer

Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....

Congrats. Those two items will work well together.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

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!

The scales are Bocote, you can see it in the classifieds.
Here is a link to it, with a few pics:

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...Last edited by jhenry; 04-24-2010 at 10:33 PM.
