    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

    That look like how it's done to me. Nice job! Thanks for taking the effort to post them for us.
    Do you have any 'Before' pics?

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

    Nicely done,

    Smile 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
