W&B Cleaver w/ B&W Ebony

Just pinned this razor. Here we go again, black and white ebony scales, ebony spacer, brass pins, bulls-eye washers and bearings. It's a heavy weight and I'll be honing this up tomorrow. Took lots of work to bring the blade back from the dead, but I think it's been resurrected. Here's the photos: Had to add a few pics that I took with makeshift ligt box.

Very nice, that blade looks rather large in the photograph. I noticed that you used a third pin this time...

I didn't want to go too large on the scales but had to make sure the blade did not protrude through the backside. Third pin solved the problem. Now I'm off on the next project... got 5 Filly's to rescale, still deciding on the wood.

Wow, what a heavy stuff - love it!

I've drooled over many blades posted, but I finally have to say that I have a favorite!!! :bow I am going to have to try to make my own scales now with that wood. That is just insane.
