Default Reground Joseph Elliott in Carbon Fiber

So this one might look familiar. I posted a mock-up of it a while ago when I first started working with CF scales. Here however is the finished product. I have since reground the blade, thinned and tapered the wedge, and pinned it with all brass. Looks beautiful in person. VERY smooth shaver too. It was ground unevenly to begin with. I don't remember if I tried fixing that during the regrind, but now it centers well. Like magic lol. I'm thinking about selling it too. Might need some convincing though lol. It won't be cheap if I do. As always, comments and criticism are welcome.

Sorry, I'm not taking on any more "projects". That means no scales, restoration, honing, you name it. Look for my custom razors in the future though!

Nice lines Alex, and of course you do have the CF down Brother (showoff),,, but I really like what you did with the pins, to be more exact, the progressive sizing on the domed washers.... That looks really nice
