Here is an I. Pearce razor. Sheffield. 6/8. Tiger stripe G10 scales. G11 wedge. I really like the odd tang angle and how the scales compliment it. Color is much better in person. This razor gave me more problems than I've ever had in terms of closing centered but after hours of problem solving I got it done without it being evident. The spine has no hone wear- the grind originally had a little more space at the spine (didn't go all the way back) but I had to even it out more. I know it's not perfect (marks on spine) but I rarely try to get a 'perfect' finish on vintage blades now besides on the faces of the razor. This will also be for sale through my email list. Read my signature line. Thanks!

That is gorgeous, absolutely beautiful. I want it, to bad I cant rationalize it 
I really like the semi-gunstock shape of the scales. Smooth and subtle way to make room for the body of the blade, while adding some really nice flow to the overall shape of the scales.

The smile matches the spine. It's original and intentional. I still don't know where this "smile=bad" thing came from because it's usually not true. Anyway, not to get into that more, but I think it's hard to see on the spine here because of the reflections and lines, but check out the last picture. I think it shows well that the spine is curved. Either way in person it's obvious. Again- I prefer these types of blades.
Smiles are mostly well regarded. I think you mean frowns are bad.
Very nice. I especially like your pin work. 
Beautiful.
What a beauty!
Beautiful blade and a great shape to the scales!
Nice work. How much?
