Hello everyone, here is my latest custom scale project :

This is the razor as I received it, pretty rusty and the scales were eaten away on the other side (this is the seller's pic).

Finished product, I have always loved the "straight scales, curved blade" look. The escutcheon is hammered nickle silver.

The other side, figured bocote is a nice looking wood.

Cleaned up really nice after some sanding and polishing, the edge is nice and polished as well after being run on a 12k finisher and 1 and .5 micron strops.

The other side. Some warping is present in the finish, the pitting was very deep in places and I didn't want to grind on this blade, still looks great though.

The spacer is made from ebony reclaimed from an old piano key.
Thanks for taking a look, everyone :) Questions and comments are always appreciated.
