Where are these flea markets and why am I not near them?! [emoji23] That is going to be an excellent finished product, can't wait to see it.

Shes almost there.
Still full of pitts, but ive got good steel at the edge.
Needs buffed though.
Scales have been cut ( African pauca wood) sill need shaped sanded and CAed

Finished this one the other day. Nothing special. Removed from scales, repair scales ( horn), clean blade ( no sanding), repinn and hone. Shave was awsome.

Damn I'll have to post a done pic.
Being i dont have one

Done pics

Good job Mike! That Fredericks blade should come out nice. I'm making another set of honey scales................
You'd hate me if I showed you the Fredericks I have.

The Taylor, with the horn scales is a true wedge.
Took forever to get it honed, but man it shaves like no other. It has no equal in my rotation.
Just a incredible blade.

Heres the scales I've cut for the Fredrick.

Those are nice Mike but the tang end looks a little long. Will you be able to maneuver the tail with 'em like that?

Awwww hell, here's my favorite Fredericks:

That's a gorgeous razor.
And from my drawing of the scales from a cutout of the blade, yes it is a little long. But should function just fine.
The blade should rest in the scales like your fredrick, with the notch visable.
The blade is 5/8 at heal,6/8 at toe.[emoji6]
