    Default JL's axe ?

    Josh said I could post these pics.

    I reworked his scales from clasic wooden scales to space-age retro. The 8/8 workedback stands out like the "dog's danglies".

    At least JL is happy and as it happens so am I.

    Well JL, you can now shave in the dark.

    ps I'll be offering this type of scale as well. Some colour options.

    Very very sexy razor Gary!!! You were right those acrylic scales really compliment the blade. It is a great contrast to the rest of my collection of 1800's and early 1900's razors. And of course its 8/8 lol! I cant wait to try it out after Lynn is finished with it

    Awesome job thanks again!!!

    OMG OMG
    That's some super stuff right there. I'm gonna have to go change my undies now.
    Super job, Gary. I'm so impressed. It's razors like that, like I couldn't possibly dream up on my own, that make me shy from collecting, because if I ever start there wouldn't be a stop to it. I see that and think to myself, "If you get that one X, you'll have to get about a thousand others to keep it company". That keeps me sane.

    But it's beautiful.

    How cool is that! Great job there Gary. Very trick. I gotta send you my 8/8 Friodur so you can work your magic on it.

    Ed, just let me know when you want something done. I agree, the friodurs are very modern retro looking and need something to suit IMHO.

    Cheers
