Bob and my Bro
Well, as was reported, my bro got sidelined during our awesome visit to Bob's place a couple weeks ago. Bob finished up my bro's second razor and gave this medieval razor a set of wicked "Dragon's Foot" scales... Have you ever heard that Bob has a good eye?
So, my bro's design, and he did all the work up to the grinding, and Bob finished it up. Those scales are something special

With that cutout and the wedge shaped as it is, it looks kind of like a bird in flight in that first pic... Think of the blade as a wing. Was that the intention with the design?
Beautiful material, and very cool design.
Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.

Awesome scales and razor, particular talon design at the wedge and the material (acrylic?).
Well done!

As much as I'd like to take credit for the final design...a lot of it just turned out great after mistakes on my part. One of the finger notches was WAY too close to the pivot pin, so Bob had me make another and just grind them together...and the result ended up far better than the initial design. So luck, and a very good (and patient) teacher was far more responsible than anything that I had planned. Originally Posted by HNSB
