Thanked: 1That pretty much sums up the razor I got from Larry. Ended up with a tonsorial gem. I bought the $43 sight unseen but noticed last night the scale is cracked on one side. Not saying it came that way, just something I noticed.
Still have to I'd the scale material. I assume celluloid but it almost looks like veins making me wonder if it might be bone.

The scales are made of bone.
That rust spot at the tip on the backside is troublesome - put some wd40 or 3-in-1 and see if it'll turn black. It really should be sanded to metal though, or at the very least converted to black using vinegar or something - too late as it's already honed.
