hey dont talk about Dave that way...:-)..
seriously though.... I know flies tied with hair like that can take some time to do.. so Id hate to lose it on the first cast.. even if it does look like someone we know.. :-)...

I had that same thought on who could tie these when you posted this.. it also brought to mind the deer hair (Ithink) poppers that I bought a while back.. and Id forgotten that the hair is trimmed and shaped with a razor blade.. :-)

[font "Comic Sans MS"][#008000][size 3]Reminded me of the fad on campus & that was to shave with a single edge Gem blade. No holder - just the blade. Could do it then as my hand was quite steady - but wouldn't dare try that now. lol[/size][/#008000][/font]

Ive scrapped hair off the back of my hand and forearm with a knife blade Id just sharpened but I never try to shave with a single edge razor blade.. [laugh]
but you're right.. it would take a steady hand to neatly trim and cut like that on a fly.. one slip and you'd have to start over.. [mad]
