    Not an expert, to my eye there is very little visually wrong with it. I think it is excellent especially considering it is your first attempt at razor making. I agree ^ that I too wish I had the tools and more importantly the skills to do the same.

    Possibly a little refinement on the tang and wedge. If the tang has a taper front to end and top to bottom a wedge instead of a spacer is needed.

    Overall I really like it since I like classic razor designs.

    No being gentile necessary.
    Beautiful job.
    The blade has a nice grind and a nice finish. I like the myrtlewood scales.
    Looks like it has great balance and is one heck of a shaver.
    The neat thing is that it's only going to get better from here.
    Congratulations and enjoy!
