Thread: 1095, Red G10 with a Monky Tail

Here is a new one, the blade is 1095, the scales are G10. The blade is about 7/8s or 13/16s depending on where you measure it. The temper lines/activity are a witness to how the blade was held in the quench oil.

Yet another amazing piece of craftsmanship Charlie! That tail is long! Very cool

Love it. really dig the quench lines

Looking good Charlie! Great lines and a beautiful blade.

It looks like a Charlie Lewis custom.

WOW!!!! that is a true piece of Art!!!!! that grind shot is AMAZING and i love the look of the scales!!!

I really like that the spine looks uneven (not uniformly smiley). Whether this actually is true or just my eyes playing tricks on me is one question. Whether it was intentional is another question. Nonetheless, I think it looks great because it adds to the rustic, raw, unrefined aspects of the razor. Very organic.

Man, your full hollows are getting better and better, love it!

Beautiful Charlie, love the roughness in your razors

You are right it is not a traditional smile shape, I put the apex of the bend in the first third of the blade then straightened out the bend from there. I think it makes a cool looking, functional shape that is a little bit out of the ordinary.

Thank you to everybody for the kind words and encouragement.
