    Here is a batch of razors I've done over the last week or so. Figured y'all would enjoy the eye candy.



    From left to right, Jonathan Crookes Sheffield, W&B Frameback, George Wostenholm Celebrated, Joseph Rodgers.

    a couple individual shots... the Crookes is an absolute beauty!









    Also, here is an old Greaves..one of my razors that I managed to get scaled! I picked it up off ebay for 25 shipped. hehe.

    It is laminated veneer sheet. Its real abalone sandwiched between a 1/16" thick layer of black acrylic and clear acrylic. neat stuff. Masecraft sells it -- and whenever you see abalone on the forums here, its usually Masecraft's stuff.

    I have to say that i have always enjoyed the exceptional eye candy created by the talented restorers at SRP, but tinged with a touch of envy for the lucky owners, so it feels great to be the owner of the first four! Thanks Brad, your artistry exceeds my expectations! Upon seeing these i was immediately compelled to do a backflip, but i'm fifty-six, so i managed a cartwheel instead.

    Eye candy is right, beautiful work. I have to say the Greaves is my personal favourite. I'm really becoming a fan of patina.

    edit:Outstanding Brad, five beauties! I just can't decide which is my favorite, I love them all. Are you going to polish that Greaves, or leave the patina?
