    There's several different variations out there. Here's a link to one:

    Looking at some old razor blades trying to figure out the best way to finish them and/or try to fix the way I messed them up with early honing attempts and/or using coarse abrasive on drill with buffer when it wasn't really the best thing to do. Some of the first razors I worked a few years ago would have been better off if I hadn't messed with them!

    I've found some old scales I think I can make look pretty good applying what I've learned from Mike. Now I just got to figure out how to make the blades look best.

    I may post some pics to see if you gentlemen have any suggestions.
