Goldedge in Ebony
So I have been following 10pups restore thread (http://straightrazorpalace.com/works...es-reaper.html) and decided to use EVERYTHING he has been showing...
MANY MANY e-mails later I would like to THANK him for all the work he has done on putting together a FANTASTIC thread on EXACTLY how to do this.
I only had to figure out how to glue the inlays on because he has not got that far yet.
So here she is... 4 or 5 sets of scales later because fitting the inlays is a
!!!!
Domed washers (made by me) and all the hardware is brass.
edit: Wedge is Ebony also and it is finished in CA.
THANKS AGAIN for all the help 10pups... You Da MAN!
ps...anyone who does restores... you have my most humble respect!

Sheesh...keep looking at this DD, the scales and the inlays look awesome, the whole razor looks like it just came out of the box! That is one of the nicest DD's I've ever seen. Makes me want to send you my Goldedge and get you to put some new scales on it - maybe then my Goldedge will like me and stop biting me every time I use it.
Really, that razor is hypnotizing me, trying to figure out how to get one of the shots of it as my background for my new phone!Chevhead likes this.

Didn't notice the hole, just looks great on my phone...SWMBO just sighed when she saw it....said, "Really!?!"
The boy likes it though, he said it looks cool!Chevhead likes this.
