Thread: JOSH'S CHRISTMAS PRESENT! No looking, Josh

Bill,

A true work of art. Even if you do not manage to sharpen it (which I am sure you will), it'll make a beautiful exhibition piece.

I just have one question: is it a little screw that I saw at the toe end of the spine? Is that to hide Josh's toothpick lol?

BTW how does it shave?

It's supposed to shave???
Actually, I'll hone it up today and mail it tomorrow if Josh's wife gets back to me with an address. She hasn't answered my email yet. Maybe she changed her mind...


The screw at the tip of the blade is actually a supplemental laser guide to prevent maladies involving major losses of blood.

Or... an emerald in a setting. I guess my photography still needs work.

Thanks for all the compliments, guys. It was pretty challenging to make a razor this size look presentable and keep it somewhat balanced. In other words, it's hard to make a Clydsdale look like a race horse.

I've got one more razor to finish involving a commitment, and then I'll finish a few of the race horses. If you want to be notified when they are done and ready for sale, send me your email address either through a PM or through my web site. I will keep the costs below $300.

PM sent Bill.
Hopefully you've got something in the works that I could lift without a chain fall?

Bill,
Extremely nice work. You're an excellent jockey... and that horse is certainly a winner!

One last thing... who's the lucky one that gets to help you hone it... lifting it is a TWO MAN JOB, isn't it?

I imagine he clamps it in a work bench, and then uses an angle grinder or a belt sander.

Bill, the razor is amazing, but you mis-spelled my name The funny thing is that I wasn't paying much attention to the sparkly shiny stuff.. Just the metal and the wood (in that order). I'd still like to get my hands on a smaller specimen (8-9/8) one of these days, when the cash-flow becomes more stable

Bill only one word WOW

Most definately a one of a kind razor.
Outstanding........

I think the only thing this razor misses is that japanese sword steel curv where the 2 different kinds of metal (steel & iron) meet, for that extra killer look. (and maybe a gutter with attached transfusionbag for the blood drawn? ) Show up with this in your bagage at the airport and you won't be flying again for a loooong time..

Great job Bill. It is absolutely beautifull. I really hope Josh or his wife will post pictures of his reaction, and that first shave. As well made and attractive as that razor is I just can not see how anyone could possibly shave with that monster. I bet Josh will have to completely re-learn his technique.
