    Cool Long Weekend in the shop

    Well at least I got some work done out in the shop over the long weekend...

    Name: am 2.jpg Views: 342 Size: 28.8 KB

    These 4 are heading home tomorrow, left to right in the Emerald & Gold is a Joseph Rodgers 7/8 near wedge that had a full custom restore..
    Next over in Faux Ivory vintage acrylic is a Wostenholm 6/8 near wedge that had some heavy hone wear Alan and I decided that I would just get it some scales and hone it out, actually I was pretty happy with the looks on it..
    Next is a Boker #1056 5/8 hollow with a beautiful scalloped spine and the Boker Spanish point I put it in Tiger acrylic..
    Last is another Joseph Rodgers, a full hollow 6/8 "Matchless" in Turquoise & Gold acrylics..

    BTW the wooden bowl in the background was one of the Christmas gifts the wifey found for me...

    Here are some close ups...

    That's a smart looking handful of razors, if I say so myself! Glen, take a few weeks of for R&R, and be prepared to be inundated with razor's in the need of allot of TLC!

    More very fine work Glen. That Boker is an especially striking combination of steel and scales!
    The bowl is a beautiful piece of work as well.

    Killer job Glen. The scales bring to mind vintage stuff from back in the old days.
