    Default Bradford FBU in Ivory

    My client is a Barber and has a shop in Wyomissing Pa. The blade was in fair condition but is now a mirror.
    I came up with a design of a barber pole for the scales with a scroll with the name of the city on it.
    It was my first go round with color scrimshaw.
    The bolsters were modified from another razor to resemble the end caps on a pole.

    Very good! That is certain to be a fine focal point at the shop. Well done!

    For a shop it will mean more than traditional black scales. A bit novel but fitting in this case.
    And it's fun to occasionally step outside the box .
