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

    Handsome razor and really looks like superior work transferring the overlays. It is a little surprising to me that more production razors are not using overlays.

    As always you do nice work!

    I have a friend who has his grandfather's razor in celluloid scales and I'm trying to find someone to cast duplicates in close to original color so that his blade isn't damaged!

    Again, Nice Job!!

    Man! The more I read, I could not believe you made new scales and transferred the bolsters! Great work! Extremely authentic restoration.
    Also, those old Bokers with the high notch shave the dickens!
