Thread: need help with scales, on the cheap

haveing purchased a few razors off of ebay recently, and the best one to shave with, is also the one that is in need of new scales. one side is completely off at the upper pin. only one small problem, and that is on the financial side, as in i am on a very tight budget currently, as is everyone these days. it is a full wedge in as much as i can tell. and am wondering if anyone has any advice for a newbie on where to get scales replaced rather inexpensively, and quickly. i truely like this razor, as it is the best shaver, my others need a honeing, and am an inpatient sort, hate to have nothing to work with. advice please, am really wanting to shave with a st8, dont want to go back to my single blade.

If you're not looking for anything too fancy and you're willing to pick up shipping I'd be willing to put a set of scales on it.

freeman, you are a lifesaver, fancy is not an issue to what i would cosider my workhorse razor. it just needs scales, that is all im concerned with, i have actually fallen for this razor, dont know why, but it shaves great, atleast as i am concerned, and all i did was strop it, so if you will send me an address, i will work on the shipping end and get her to you.
