    Default cattarugus

    hear are the finished scales ,the blade however is ,is a bit so so , i had to take off at least 1/4" at the heal to straighten it up and also grind off the etching to get rid of the rust and pitting . It was an Ebay mistake,anyway once it is honed it should be a good shaver ,the blade is the same size as my merkur straight now
    the finish is only one very thick coat of ca, the scales are long ,I know but as I said it is an experiment with the shape and form ,plus I`m bloody lazy and couldn`t be bothered trimming it
    Kind regards Peter

    Looks great... particularly the grain and shape of the scales.

    I really like the shape of the scales and partnered with a smaller, more "elegant" blade sets it off a treat.
