    Looking great, Evan. Have you picked out scales?

    Sorry Joe. I am really behind. I'll try for half hollow on the first blade and see how that goes. The advantage of using a CNC is repeatability. If I get the grind process down I can litterly tell the machine to repeat the process 1 thousandth closer and keep going until I get to where I want. The problem is making adjustments or shaping by feel is nonexistent. I have a feeling that's important or more people would make razors with a CNC.

    With your background Joseph, I can see why scales would be of interest to you.

    I figure that you would go half-hollow. Thanks for satisfying my curiosity.

    Fabulous shave Jeff. Love the Jayruh boar. As you may know I have several. He does such nice work.

    Beautiful shave Joe! Old Spice is a classic brand. I wish they brought back the original formula.

    A catastrophe happened in my apartment, fellas...shave-related. I was fishing around for some medications on the top of the fridge/freezer where I keep them, and my "fishing" action knocked the bowl of the Phoenix soap off, and it shattered on the floor. So mad since I just put it there this morning. I have another soap bowl up there(the Burma Shave soap)and I pushed it further back so as not to hit it while fishing again.
