Razor Set in Spalted Maple

[Lee Koepke]

After doing tons of stuff for either other people or for sale, I decided to do something for ME. I had a few pieces of lightly figured spalted maple cut offs from some bowls I recently turned and make a razor set for myself. I may or may not turn a 'soap cup' as I have never ever used puck soaps or brushes before. Thanks for looking comments/critques are always welcome!!

Sweet! These kinds of items fetch a premium price in catalogs like Caswell-Massey (which, BTW, has a pretty nice line of mug soaps). I use a wooden bowl for travel and a ceramic mug ("Submarine Service - Shave like a sailor") at home, but neither is as nice as what you've shown here. The convenience of the canned stuff is great, but you can't beat a hot lather!

That is one GREAT looking shaving set. I would love to have one of those. I think I'll look around for good pricing on the components.

Has to be one of the prettiest pieces. That's a very lovely set. Thanks for sharing.

Great job on the shaving set! That wood is really impressive!

very nice, definitely something to be proud of no matter who it was for.
