Bob,
I just bought the stainless steel brush but I really want a fan shaped Manchurian knot. Let me know that you got this message before you ship it. I will pay the difference. Email me. Let me know if you still have my email address. Thanks!!

Bob, those three latest releases are even more magnificent than those that preceded. Your work is impressive. I'm very proud of my two Elite brushes, and plan for more...

I've got a few new brushes that have just been listed at www.eliterazor.com.

Azurite and Malachite - (24 - 26mm)


Green and Transparent Blue resin - (24 - 26mm)


Barber Pole - (24 - 26mm)


Malachite - (24 - 26mm)


Black and Copper - (24 - 26mm)


Silver Flecked Black and White - (24 - 26mm)   If you look closely, there are hints of dark blue within the black handle


Silver Flecked Black Resin and Blue Lapis - (24 - 26mm

I've seen quite a number of "Hybrid" brushes recently, primarily wood and resin, and I thought I would give a stone and resin hybrid a shot.  The Blue Lapis runs all the way through the handle.


As always, thanks for looking.

I got back to my roots, so to speak, and completed a few very nice wood pieces.  These are listed and available on my site at www.eliterazor.com.

Black Walnut Burl (24 - 26mm

Black Walnut burl grows widely throughout North America along areas of the East Coast from Florida to Maine.  Walnut sapwood is very creamy white in color, while the heartwood, which ranges in color from light to a rich, dark brown, and matures to an almost purplish-black hue.  Walnut often carries characteristically dark brown or purplish streaks.  In order to minimize the color contrast of sapwood, walnut is often steamed at the mill.  Walnut is a popular wood for high-end furniture and cabinets, especially in combination with lighter woods to produce decorative effects. In the United States, it is the standard wood for rifle butts and gun stocks.



Amboyna Burl (24 - 26mm)

Amboyna burl is found in Indonesia, especially on the Andaman group of islands.  Amboyna burl is one of the rarest & most expensive woods in the world.  The burly part of the log is often very small, yielding only wood in small dimensions.  The color ranges from deep yellow orange to deep red and after finishing Amboyna burl reveals a depth & liveliness in color like found in no other.  Amboyna burl was a popular, frequently used wood in the Jugendstil epoch in the twenties. It was also the first burl wood to be used by Rolls Royce for dashboards.



Barber Pole Razor Handle

The handle is made from separate pieces of dyed Box Elder and natural American Holly and arranged to depict the traditional Barber’s Pole. These individual pieces were laser-cut to exacting tolerances then assembled by hand in order to create this piece.The modern Barber’s Pole originated in the day when blood-letting was one of the principal duties of the barbering trade. The two spiral ribbons painted around the pole represented two long bandages, one twisted around the arm before bleeding (to make the vein stand out), and the other used to bind it afterwards. The first European poles contained only red and white stripes and some historians credit the blue stripe on the American poles as having been transported from blue and white bands on English poles of the 1700’s. Other authorities say that American barbers added the blue stripe to their red and white poles as a patriotic gesture.



As always, thanks for looking.

Fire and Ice (24 - 26mm)

I just finished a couple of new handles that have my redesigned stainless steel components.  These new tail pieces will allow the razor to stand upright on its base.

From left to right is the Skull and Crossbones, Barber Pole and a Honeycomb handle.  These are all made of separate pieces of laser-cut wood to create these designs.


As always, thanks for looking.

Bob

I don't come across Teak burl very often and was fortunate to get a piece large enough to build these three matching pieces.



As always, thanks for looking.

Bob

This one is a real beauty.  Just listed - 28mm Blue Lapis brush with veins of Pyrite running through it.




As always, thanks for looking.

Bob

Remember hot rods?  This might be the razor handle for you.  It is made of separate pieces of dyed Maple that were laser cut to depict a flame design.  I have just listed 2 of these handles on my site at www.eliterazor.com.



As always, thanks for looking.
