Thread: Joseph Smith Regrind in carbon fiber

Here is a full regrind, i reground it using an 8" wheel. It has a mirror finish.

Carbon fiber scales, G-10 weave wedge, expecting it to stand out a bit more, but, I ended up liking the understated look. Enjoy.

Gawd! that is cool! If I understand, that would be a fine shaving blade with all that hot and cold! Hard as a rock and pretty! Thanks for sharing! The scales are amazing.

Wowwww Brad...Beautifully done

I just can't believe that all that rust came out of the "initial" razor . What a stunning transformation...There's no trace of crud remaining. Unbelievable!!!

Now that's a beautiful result! As always your attention to detail and precision shine through!

Amazing job! I have been thinking about using the carbon fiber myself, had wondered why i haven't seen more of it as scale material. Was it hard to work with? What did you seal it with?

Great looking razor

Putting that grinder you built to good use very nice save on the blade Brad...

Your work on the scales and the rest of the restore is fantastic as is normal for you

Awwww...words just dont do this justice, I love that razor and its inspired me for my next restore.
I fancy a Carbon/Kevlar weave set of scales, just need to find a nice shoulderless blade

Thanks for sharing your work.

Great job Brad!

Hello, Undream:

That is an incredible transformation of a straight razor in the hands of a craftsman. Great work.
