no excuses now

I have just sent away for a norton 4000/8000 combination stone Have just recieved a couple of Vlad`s pin sets and am waiting on one of Tony`s 3" strops:D (seconds) so I don`t think I have any excuses now
Have a good day all
Kind regards Peter
PS now if I could just work out how to post Pics,I would be a very happy man;)

Lets hope this works,This is the refurbished bigelo&dowse with very old red deer antler
the net two is of my first fazor ,made from ATS s/s hardened to 62.5 RC34
Any constructive critisim would be great as its my first and I only want to improve.Its been quite a shock actually as I`ve discovered that there is a lot more in these straights than meets the eye
Kind regards Peter

You ground that straight from ATS 34? Way to go!:)
I really wish I had that skill.
How does it shave?

Nicely done,

thanks

Thanks for the encouragement ,one and all, Ive been away so I haven't had a chance to finish the razor . I have just started to make the scales today,I`m doing them out of Brigalo Burl,which should be quite nice when done.
They say that the proof of the pudding is in the eating so I will let you know how it shaves and will post pics when I`m done,mind you I may just be a tad biased
Kind regard Peter:rolleyes:
