Thread: A new box of tetnus

IF the blade is still hollow enough, you could make one like this...

But you need to really get lucky. I've shaved with this a few times. Its something that takes extra concentration to keep the angle proper and not slice your face open! As the angle is very hard to see. you have to watch the angle of the scales when shaving as the angle of the blade is had to see.
BTW, This is a 2/8 razor.

With all due respect, some of yall are just nutty.

That said, I'll take it under advisement.

Nutty? You don't know the half of it.

The other half...



Things broken, can be saved as well.

Looks Nice Outback. Mine are not really in bad shape. I guess they are bug bites, or maybe some sort of rot. And, like I said, I have seen some of yall repair scales in really bad shape. Just another new skill to learn.

What you dont know is Outback is Andre the Giants big brother and that razor is full sized.

My razor was an extreme hollow blade so i was able to do some serious sanding and cutting to make it thinner. Its all about what you think you can get away with and make it shave

OK, so taking it under advisement, as promised. Mine is a wedge. Maybe it was a near wedge, but pretty much just a wedge now. The problem I see is that there is no protection between the thumb and the blade. Yours still has a shoulder there to keep your thumb off the blade. I'd have to grind the snot out of the tang to get that. It'd be a lot of time with the wine cork.

But, I did your picture to my girlfriend, and she thinks I am nutty, so you can only imagine what she thinks of you now. But, I asked if she would want an 1850s bread lame and she said "Sure, why not". Granted, it may not be from the 1850s, but she knows less than I do. I could have said King Arthur used it and she'd have to go with it.
