Here's a few shots of a Joseph Allen & Sons NON XLL that I just finished buffing
There's about 8 kitchen knives on my workbench, needing HT. And there are 3 HTed and tempered razors waiting to be ground.
1 special project razor waiting for scales. And some half finished fruit knives.
Putting the finishing touches on a pair of custom monogrammed aluminum scaled Robeson 1545's that I picked up cheap.

So pretty busy at the moment you might say.
Best ruler ever Shaggy
Thanks, my daughter feels the same ;)
Just got done buying some material to put together 2 razors I've had sitting here for a while. One is a 7/8 Crown & Sword ERN and the other is a 13/16 Frederick Reynolds, faux frameback. I really want to get these two shaving. I get antsy just looking at them. I Purchased some Buckeye burl for the FR scales, along with some Baltic amber to make a wedge from. The ERN will be getting some light cream colored Micarta, and I'm going to try my hand at making a Jade wedge for it. Should be a nice challenge for both.
P.S.
Barberologist, Timberland pro work boots are the only boots I wear anymore. They're just so comfy and last forever!!!
Just doing a resto/clean-up on a Towa frameback.

Working on my first restore at the moment, it's a F. Reynolds wedge that I cleaned up, and I'm working on the scales now, g-10 and recon stone. I had a question, what do you use to polish up g-10 after sanding? Which compounds or polishes work best either by hand or by Dremel? Thanks!
