Thread: R. Wade Ne Plus Ultra in MOP

I'd selected some (nearly) one-piece MOP for this travel-sized razor. The pearl is solid for the whole scale with about 1 cm of another piece joined at the pivot side, so not quite solid scales, but close. The shape is copied directly from Smith's Key 1816, but much liberty is taken here - the original material is ivory I think, and there would not have been the large collars present. I was not keen on pinning solid MOP collarless though, so I went with copper collars. I really liked the color contrast.
