Thread: Bocker custom restore, with overlay transfer

This one I did a while a go for a member, but it so happened that the original celluloid scales started to degrade and caused some cell rot.
So I buffed the blade as much as possible to clean it up, and then made exact copy of the the original scales in faux tortoise acrylic (the originals were faux tortoise as well) and transfered the overlays upon the request of the owner.
Decided to pin the razor in brass rod with SS washers, I wanted to go washer-less but the holes on those overlays were huge and impossible to make a good pin head on top of them. I must say that kind of work is really finicky and took me a long time to get all to fit nicely together.
