Wow, Limey, you did it again!
That is such beautiful work. THAT is what all straight razors want to look like.

Wow Rob...very nice.
I'm still looking for a W&B to add to my stable. I'd like to get ahold of a meat chopper with a barber's notch.
Yours just added to my desires to have one...

Dave - thanks and watch out those large meat choppers are getting to be very expensive...even in poor condition. It might be easier to find a large Allen or Reynolds.
Nice work, nice photos! Thanks for sharing.
