Cheers!

I'm immensely flattered with your offer, but I'm purely amateur and pursue restoration as a hobby on my own razors. I'm still at a point where I'm never sure if what I'm doing is going to end well or in disaster. There are many here who would be a far better choice.

I think you are selling yourself short there Hart , the work you did on that WB in Oak Crotch is far beyond stunning...





Truly.

I did have high hopes though and looked into getting some mammoth ivory for the scales from Canadian Ivory. They don't seem to have anything in an appropriate size right now but they said they would have more in September, if you're interested.

I'm in complete agreement with your choice in scales for this piece, IMHO it would be the perfect compliment for this blade.

Whatever you choose, let us know how it turns out.

Wilco!!
