Good start. How high a grit are you planning on taking them?
The older I get the more I realize how little I actually know.

Thanks guys! I am debating on reusing the scales! The Boker seem to have bone scales... I sand them a bit and turns out they are greenish! And they stank so bad as i was sanding them! Lol! The Hunter razor has plastic ones and they are nothing special! I might go with new scales for that one
