Very nice work, the grain on the maple is stunning, quilted?Quote:

Fine looking storage box Mike, nice figuring in that grain for sure.
Colin, gonna be a fine looking razor.
I can etch ivory, if that helps you at all. Like a wood burning kit only much more accurate.
Found ivory to shape and cut without effort with a sharp fine tooth hand blade. Wish I had more, really enjoyed working with it, ghoul that I am evidently..
Good luck.
:tu
Mike F. I know what that looks like already in my head because it looks similar to those birds eye maple scales you did, and you know I love those. I'm betting that maple looks stunning in person. Nice work brother!
Its does look pretty nice, unfortunate that it wont make the next meet, it's leaving me this week.
I will have to make another :)
Very nice indeed, sir. [emoji482]
+1 on that Mcbladescar, very nice work. :tuQuote:

Finally... The last razor from memorial day's hull of eleven.
Geo. Wistenholm & Son, Pipe Razor.
Overall.. Great condition, for the wilds.
A bit of rust, worst being on the top of the toe ,of the spine.
The bad part...
Someone started sanding/grinding, on the blade already. Thankfully the spine and edge look unscaved.

At least he didn't grind the tang stamp, and there's plenty of steel to remove the sanding/grinder marks.
