Here is a razor that I just finished up this morning. It is an 8/8 and has horn scales with a purple heart wedge. The razor is pinned with brass rod and stainless washers. The length of the cutting edge is 2.75" long. The razor was ground from 1/4" O-1 steel stock.

Another razor
Here is a French Point 6/8+ razor in O-1 steel, pinned with brass rod and stainless steel washers. This blade sports a set of black walnut scales that were finished in mineral oil.

Straight Razor in O-1 and Zebrano Wood
I ground this blade recently and am looking forward to shaving with it this week. I will get it back from being honed hopefully mid-week.

First Straight Razor 6/8 in O-1 steel with Purple Heart Scales
I ground this blade from 3/16" thick O-1 tool steel using a 10" contact wheel on a KMG grinder. The scales were made using purple heart and the blade was pinned with brass rod, stainless steel washers and polyethylene washers on the inside of the scales. This razor was honed by Doc226 and is an amazing shaver. I instantly started a second razor that follows these lines with the exception of a few dimensions.
