"Replacing all the G10 with horn" There are a lot of reasons to like G10, but I am of the kind who thinks old blades are better restored as close as possible to their original state. A before pic on this razor would have proven my point to some, but would have been unproductive. The razor (faux frameback) is a beauty, a racy looking blade that says to me, 'if you are in a hurry, take me.' +1 on what others have said about the pinning: looks like a hammer never touched a pin.
