    Default 6/8s kind of Sheffield stlye

    This razor is a 6/8s 1/2 hollow, the blade is O1 the scales are g10. It was forged then ground. This razor started life as a big 7/8s but I chipped the blade when it caught on a scothbrite belt. I decided to go ahead and finish it and have a little fun with it. I am happy with it now.

    Hello, Charlie:

    There is something dashing about your razor. Maybe it's the way the blade flashes that sweeping and confident smile. Good work.

    Regards,

    Obie

    I really love the tang! Too bad about the chip, but to tell the truth, it is nice to see a custom blade in this size! Worked out GREAT! Scales, fit and finish are super!

    The tang is wayyyy cool Charlie! I'm sure it scared the living hell out of you when it got belt snatched. Glad it didn't do any physical damage. Keep up the excellent work.
