Hey just wanted to take a moment to thank all the people who went together to give me my new razor and box at the gathering this weekend. I was very touched by the hard work and thoughtfulness you guys all put in. It is really beautiful and I now it will serve me well over the years. the box was built by oldblades its walnut and faux mother of pearl inlay the blade is a wade and butcher and it is sicboaters first restore great job diude!!!! and simon built the scales I know you told me the type of wood but I cannot recall so help me out. Its an english softwood anyway and gssixgun honed it up wicked sharp so to you guys and all the others who put this together I just want to say thanks. You are all some of the greatest people its been my pleasure to get to know!!!!!! Ok so now the pic's!!!!!!

One of these days in your travels, a guy is going to show you a brand-new deck of cards on which the seal is not yet broken. Then this guy is going to offer to bet you that he can make the jack of spades jump out of this brand-new deck of cards and squirt cider in your ear. But, son, do not accept this bet, because as sure as you stand there, you're going to wind up with an ear full of cider.

Doc, when you told me over the phone that it was beautiful you didn't mention it was that beautiful. Wow! Tim, sicboater, Siimon and Glen really did a bang up job on that. I can see now why you were so excited about it. Way to go bud you did well. From all of the pics I have seen it looked like a bang up weekend. I am going to plan to make it next year..........

The scale wood is Laburnum with a tung oil finish. Simon left it at his house on accident! His wife had to shuttle it up from landrum sc! Glad you like it Doc. Tim's work is nothing short of incredible. Then you meet the guy and realize how freakin' nice he is. You definitely deserve it Doc! We need to bring something for Martha next time! I guess she will just have to enjoy your BBS Face this go 'round!
