For only a couple of hours in setting this little fellow up it's a great shaver. Recycled horn scales and a little honing. One of my early projects. Couldn't figure out how to add text to pic file.
 
In Mind brass fameback, with brass scale. The lack of a tail makes it tricky to deal with, but it is small and they are like hen's teeth.

My smallest straight is shown here. You can just about make it out it the little man's hand.

It does take a rather long time for a shave, and it has to be stropped repeatedly.

A late special edition of the Heljestrand No.24 made to be as small as 3/8 as it says on the tang and then the midget Heljestrand MK No.29 that's just a tad larger
