This Drew is the Friday razor from a set. The blade was in relatively decent condition with just a light bit of pitting. Unfortunately the original Ivory scales were cracked as well as they allowed the blade's edge to protrude . When I made the new scales I followed the original shape but made adjustments to fix this. Also, by request, kept them a bit fuller than usual and this allowed me to radius the surface.
No washers, brass pins and a black horn wedge completed it.
Very nice, classic style scales and super polish on the blade. Very clean.
Good work.
Nice. As always! Beautiful work.

Nice work, I prefer the new scales than the old ones. Nice round ones. Very clean polish.
Thanks. Yes, I too like the look of the new scales. Nothing wrong with the typical flat ones but these are a nice diversion .
Amen to that...Quote:

It's nice to see a little 'variant' to the usual flat. Personally I see nothing wrong with 'bending the rules' so to speak.
Thanks. But I'm back to working some flats. I have a boxed 7 day set of Drews that I'm currently restoring for myself. Here they are after breaking them down . I made one full set of scales and 3 singles. They're now about ready to go back together and then just resto the box.
Beautiful!
If they turn out as nice as this one, you are in for a real treat.
Thanks for reviving this blade for me Mark.
Oh it was my pleasure. And the thanks really goes to you for letting me work on it.
That is some top notch work! That set will be mind blowing when it is finished:)
Thank you.
Well I think the set is quite nice. I just wrapped it up earlier today .
Very nice
Love the classic style of the scales.
Lovely work! Looking forward to see the completed set and case.
