Thread: A cameo appearance after a long absence.

Wow that is now my favorite razor...

You are a true artist Vlad. If you put half the effort/skill into your every day life I do not see how it could be anything but spectacular.

Jeeves:- "There is one sollution Sir.. if I may be so bold ?."

Bertie Wooster:-- "And what may that be Jeeves ?."

Jeeves:-- "I would suggest I shave you with the DD we recently aquired from the bespoke barbers supplier in Canada Sir."

Bertie Wooster:- Ï leave myself in your capable hands Jeeves...as always."

Jeeves:- Ä most discerning choice Sir."

LOL!

I'd never trust Bertie with one of these puppies....He'd probably use it to butter his toast!

Also, his Aunt Agatha would never cough up the dough!

Wow! Now that's a warm welcome back and very inspirational. Thank you!

You definitely know how to make a guy feel guilty about being absent.

I must admit that you inspire me to complete the second razor. I will try to finish the blade and pin it to the scales which have been ready for a few months. These are a near twin to these scales: Ebony/Afzelia burl but with a swirl grain pattern and brass bands that are more figured and I find them to be more delicate. The blade is 5/8" near wedge and should be a very elegant looking razor if I manage to restore the blade.

The razor in these pictures has a matching box that is ready for contouring and flocking, which I look forward to completing.

The second razor has no box at the moment because after a fixable screw-up while working on it, I took my frustrations out with a hammer. When I was done there weren't too many pieces left bigger than a toothpick. So needless to say it is a write off and it only felt good for about a minute until I realized that I would have to start from scratch.

Been there, done that (more than once )
