    Very nice. I really do like the bone. It can take a very nice shine when buffed properly.

    Thanks for sharing.
    May your lather be moist and slick, the sweep of your razor sure, and your edge always keen!

    Those scales are a perfect complement to the blade. Nice work!

    Bone is much heavier than I had anticipated, and it is fairly durable too. A great choice for that blade, and you had some premium material to choose from.

    Nice looking razor with that white bone scales. I love that rams horn though.
