    Default 6/8 C.V. Heljstrand MK 22 with new ivory scales

    Just finished this one today. Took a lot of work to make these scales.
    At the end of september, I've managed to buy a heljestrand on a local fleamarket. The scales just weren't right for this razor so a rescale was needed.
    I decided to go with ivory, classic for a heljestrand but o so lovely.
    This is the thread http://straightrazorpalace.com/show-...-beauties.html

    Before the rescale.

    Well worth the effort. Everything looks good especially the scales. Great save.
