MY First straight razor

[clint]

OK this is my first razor i'll finish the grind today after i sell a knife in a few hours ,this is HHH damascus steel feather pattern i just saw razor in it i was going to start a pocket knife but just saw razor in this piece. the wood is bacote ,and as soon as i get some washers its going to geather What do you think ? right now it's a 8/8 but when i'm done with the grind i'm sure its gonna be thinner I'm using a 6" wheel for the hollow grind. . i'll finish the handle after i make sure the grind is right i left the handle fat until i know what size the razor will be i do plan on it being alot skinnier . its alot longer than the pic shows the handle is 5.6in long

Mighty fine piece of work there, Clint. The damascus looks really good, I wonder how it will shave?

That's a lovely peice of handle.
