Thread: What are you working on?

Finished her up late last night. Just needs taken to the hones for a topper.

And was able to keep it at 6/8ths.

Oh boy! That's a sweet looking blade Mike. Well done.

Thanks Andrew. Knew there was still life in that poor thing.
I origanally started this razor in butchered blade, but forgot after MikeB52 posted his awsomeness.

Where's the pic of before, butchered blade? I can't keep up with you guys!

I really dig what you did with it. That's my kind of patina on it. I hate high Polish on these old blades, just doesn't look right most of the time. Notice I said most of the time.

This is it before

Oh shoot, I did see that one. That sucker had some bad hone wear, I can't even tell it had any in the after pic. Sweet save Mike!

Slept in a little this am, I see dudes in Akron are hard at it already!
Great rework Mike, frowns gone and blade looks ready to go.
Looks spot on mate.
Great save! And with typical Outback speed of turn around. Hehehe..

Todays agenda is to get that Genco cleaned up for ya, and see what I can do with this $9.00 wreck I found yesterday.

Next project won't be razor-related, but will involve a vintage piece of jewelry I'll try to modernise a little bit, to use as a necklace.

With a base of titanium or ivory, I don't know yet (but with extrem care either way ).

The extent of work being done on razors today. A beefy Wade & Butcher I've had soaking in Neats foot oil for a few days now. So really I'm not working, the Neats foot oil is working.
