    Very nice. Love the shape of the scales. And the pattern of the 'streaking' in the horn is really nice.

    Beautiful! The lines of the scales really compliment the blade's profile. Seems like one can't go wrong using streaked horn on an old Sheffield.
    The pattern on these looks like the lighter color is almost ghosting through - like billowing smoke. Very nice.

    Lucky razor to be able to kick off it's next 150 years outfitted so nicely.

    Beautiful lines and the streaking of the horn is gorgeous
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    Nothing better than seeing an old war horse back on the line to serve.
    Thank you for sharing it.

    You have a fine looking razor there, Splashone.

    What is stamped just under the spine?
