    Beautifully done!, classic elegant, the scales are just incredible. The box restoration is a great touch, a complete razor like the day it was purchase. Thanks for sharing this great piece of American razor history.

    A smashing job, Tom, you should be proud. Absolutely love the scales and the care you have taken over them is the sign of fine workmanship. Keep it away from Darl...!

    Regards,
    Neil

    Thank you, Neil. Yes, loaning that razor to him would make me nervous. Especially if he was climbing the basement stairs with it in hand! As he would say, "Har!"

    They are some lovely scales, the whole job is great, but the scales are fabulous.

    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.
