Finally got over to my buddys house and picked up my packages...
Mike, Tom... You guys went above and beyond. Thank you so much!
Tom, the ivry scales pieces are going to be needed, Ive got some shorties I want to try putting ivory on, and also for wedges and possibly accents on brushes.. the possibilities wander through places ones mind should best steer clear in order to accomplish tasks at hand.. so on to the others.. Ive really been wanting to try baburs pins, aluminium scales will be part of a fun project, and Ive been needing more mini buffing wheels! Thanks so much man, totally unexpected.
Mike, its not xmas yet, what the hell? Okay this is serious now.. I have my very own Butchered Blade brush with initials! The magnet was a great idea. Im looking forward to using it... along with The F.M77. Kamisori/Western fusion straight razor! It is deadly sharp. Im a little nervous to use it. Can you tell me, do I need to shave with a particular side? The blade is Kamisori style, how do I .. ugh Im gonna have to do some reading.
This blade is the same one that my x-girlfriends dad had! Ill be working on something to return the favor.
The Wosti will be a good project for the winter. And I dont have any pens that are like this, gonna have to get a hardwood desk to display it on!
Thank you guys, Ive been a bit down without a workshop and this is very encouraging to say the least! Ive got so much work that I can do, so many fun projects Im gonna go insane. lol soon :)
Sunday is magnetically-hanging MikeB52 brush SOTD day, Men! ................Just saying! :tu
Must be hanging....Magnetically! :D
Now I have two favorite pens! My Harley pen actually looks good beside the one B52 gave me. The Harley pen I have is a Waterman pen & it is made to look like the rocker arm cover on top with two pushrods for the clip & horizontal lines on the top part to look like a cylinder of a Harley.

One thing about the pen B52 gave me, I think both use the same refill cartridges.
OH! MikeT is afeared to try his new Japanese razor as well as the 'Searsasori' I did for him.
Is anyone close enough to go kick his ass?
To the shower, MikeT! :D
Yea, your's arrived safely as well Mike. Awesome.
Your and Tom's pens are from the same block of African Mahogany. Mike's huntsman is acrylic and Steve's Biker is hemlock.
That F.M77, I stropped and honed that like a western as really, aside from the back profile it is. Not like a traditional kami, IMO.
Found it did seem to shave more natural with the back to my cheek, but think that was all in my head. I really liked that one, and the other one I got in that lot, the meiho I believe it's called. Keeping that one. Great shaver! Your ex's Dad had a good eye for razors.
Enjoy it Mike, you guys are all a hoot and wealth of info on here with all your razor porn.
And of course, not the only ones that contribute in awesome ways, just the only one's I had return addresses for. ;)
:beer1:
That Harley pen is pretty sweet Steve. Love the design. Thanks for posting it.Quote:

This is the 4/8ths that had the cracked heel, and bad rust around the tang near the heel.

Ground out the heel., polished the blade, fitted with used scales (were warped and had to be flattened), polished the scales and assembled with origanal collars .
Still needs honed.
