Great job! Now there's some quality razor porn. You highlighted the grain of the wood very nicely, and I like the shape of those scales.

Great work I love the shape & grain of the scales. Seeing all the great work that you & other members have done I am going to have to pull my finger out & try a restore of my own soon.Paul

Now this compels me to come out and say that this set is well done! I don't put my praises out there much but from what I see it looks great. I'd also like to see the wedge though. Very nice shape and profile. I'm currently finishing up a set of birdseye maple myself!
