Ok here's some pics of 10 more off over seas just finished binding them. 8 are all with a spine to the toe 2 are just 2 different shapes. Really pleased with the response in all of them. Ranging from 2-7 to 2-11

Hope you like chaps. These are going to be belters for some lucky customers.

Are these for your NZ customer?
Beauties indeed.

Yep

Very nice, you get a lovely polish on them, what do you use?

Now that would be telling. Just a couple of grades of specific polish but its down to the sanding. 4 different stages

A true master never reveals his secrets Paul.
Must say mate those all look really really good and if you don't mind me saying some of the best I have seen come out from Aldred so far.
I also really like the new profile with the full spine and maybe with out complicating what you already have would be a great addition to the stock shape you already produce mate. The finishing seems to be excellent now mate and I remember you saying in a thread a while back you had invested in tools to enhance the finish you apply and I must say you seem to have it down to a fine art. Like you say all in the sanding so what ever your doing keep doing it mate.

No worries mate :D It's mainly in the prep work same as in my trade, the better the prep, the better the finish.

The spine down to the toe is going to be introduced for 2014. We have another shape coming too in an additional range. It just costs so much money for small companies to get artwork done and good quality printing. But we are getting there.
