sixgun, do you shape your scales. by that i mean are outside of the scales rounded/convex like typical bakelike kind or are they more flat such as the wood comes in a sheet/board?

You know, that's funny you ask, I have new wood stock on the way, and I have been thinking of how to add depth, to wood scales, without adding to much wieght.... The razor still has to feel balanced when you use it, so just making thicker scales is not the answer... So taking the scales and rounding them from say a 1/4 thick piece of stock I think would set off the balance depending on the wood....

I have some ideas that have been brewing for a few months maybe it is time to work them out....
Thanks for your question it got me thinking more on this
And thanks for all the kind compliments from everybody

How do you like working with the screws vs the standard pin? I am impressed with the look but I just worry that the screws and bolt methods will leave areas for water to gather. Have you noticed anything like this? Originally Posted by gssixgun
