    Default Custom 10/8 Easy Open: Dark Horn

    This design has been bumbling around in my mind for some time and I finally got it out.

    Blade is O1 with a satin finish, long tail, Little ivy type jimp file work and some on the nose. Finger holes for easy open doubling as thumb notch and jimps.

    Scales are dark brown horn, quiet streaks.

    Spacer is two tone white ice corian and red fiber spacer material.

    Used stainless fasteners with the hex head on both the pivot and the spacer pinning for this one. No particular reason, just thought it looked uniform on this razor.

    Very comfortable close shave this morning. Hope everyone had a good weekend!!

    Best Regards
    Kenny

    Very creative design. I like that a lot.
    The blade and scale shapes really compliment each other and I love the way they create the negative space between the two.

    Very cool!

    Nice work with that. You obviously have the talent to execute a design that runs around in your mind, and do it very well. Congratulations! That is a precise meeting of sheer terror and an efficient beautiful straight razor.
    Wow.

    That is one incredible razor. I don't know where to start: gorgeous scales, huge blade, long tail, what is not to like. Great job
