Eye candy

[mainaman]

Engels restored in candy stripe celluloid.
Phil from Masecraft sent me this as sampler when I got my order this week, so I thought it will be fun to use on a decent blade.
The razor was buffed to high mirror with some imperfections left closer to the spine which could not buff out.
Hope you guys like it.

And since we are talking about candy:

Fantastic job! I love the understated pins. I've always felt that gaudy pins are like wearing a loud dress shirt with a tie. The tie should stand out - not the shirt. Similarly, the scales should stand out - not the pins. That's also a great blade. FW Engels don't get a lot of pub but they're in my rotation.

Did you line the inside of the scales?

Telly thanks for the nice words.
No I did not line the inside its how the celluloid comes, the purpose to make the scales opaque. For transparent effect a nice sanding trough the grits will do.
