Thread: W&B- My first Regrind- Work in progress

I love the shape of that razor, very nice curves.

Charlie

Thanks for the like charlie, fyi i learned the hot vinegar method from your you tube vid series- needless to say you have been an inspiration to both myself and the community.

So i drew up these scales for the blade, i think they work well. Im now torn between carbon fiber and micarta/g10 on these ones. andy input or feedback on the scale shape / color?

I like it! Especially how the tang shape is echoed on the scales.

So here's what she looks like! ok about the scales- they are acrylic, and i original roughed them out with those thorns on the side like shown out the out line in the pics on the post above; unfortunately they interfered with the closing of the razor so i tryed to get creative and do something with heat.... not a good idea. the rear scale ended up a little melted so long story short i cut off the thorns and the rear guy has a little war scar. o well i think it looks pretty nice. i opted for bolt n nut on these for an industrial look. I will be attending the new york city / long island meetup in jersey tomorrow morning. going to see if we can get this bad boy on the stones then. for now let me know what you think!!

So for my first regrind what do you guys think?

I think you did great ! The first one is always the learn as you go method as I am finding out myself. It's tough but you pulled it off. Congratulations .

Shame about the thorns, but I think it turned out really great! Nice and aggressive to match the regrind.

A fine job for sure, Enjoy!

I like the color and shape of the scales. It looks aggressive. Good job!
