Well Bongo I have been playing with the Gold Leaf Pen.

Just a thought, have you considered buying some liquid gold leaf (or whatever it's called) and applying it
to that rather striking stamp ?....I've never done it myself, but that eagle would look cool restored !!
BTW, very nice re-profiling on that toe
Not too shabby I think:

Great work! Old beat up blade + old glopped up scales + some ingenuity + some dexterous work = a very nice new to you razor! Marvelous.

Thanks I just threw the scales in some neatsfoot, took some 80 grit to the blade and slapped it back together... EASY AS PIE! Originally Posted by nipper

While I'm a little late to the party, I will say that I don't know whether I'm more impressed with the way the blade and the initial look of the scales looked or the addition of the Gold to the scales.
All are impressive.
Bongo, I thank you for the suggestion of the Gold
