could be platic too. the winner will have to let us know when he gets them.

fyi, the auction title is automatically retrieved from the ebay link, in case you thought i was the one who wrote that bone description.

Well, i got the razor the other day and finally had a chance today to wipe it down with with maas...

first the scales are bone.
the tang covering looks feels and tastes like french ivory
80 % of the blemishes on the blade wiped off with the maas
the edge is nicked from the scales... loose pivot pin
there is a nearly a 1/4 inch long crack about a half inch down from the tip to clean it up it will need to be made into a spike point.

anybody feel like altering the tip? reasonable offers of shipping charges from skilled restorers will be considered.
