Seriously, I've made a significant investment in tools and materials, but flapwheels, radial bristle discs, a Foredom tool, super glue, Cocobolo wood, brass rod and washers, a buffer and 3 different buffing compounds are all you need to get one like that. Oh, and sandpaper.

Joe, Ive got a few of your razors and I'm extremely happy with them. Don't under estimate yourself, the finishes are fabulous. Originally Posted by Joe Chandler

FWIW, when a thread is 6 years old ..... posting an appreciation of the workmanship is a bit late IMHO.
