    Default Drew set

    As I mentioned on the other thread I got inspired to finish off my 7 day set of Drews in Ivory.
    When I first got the set one of the razors scales were really trashed so I made a new set and cleaned up the blade at that time . Now I broke that razor down again so I could match the finish on all the blades and adjust the color of the new Ivory to look more like the original stock. On the remaining razors I also had To make 3 single scales.
    Brass washerless pins, original lead wedges keep them all together.
    Now I just have to gut the box , make new dividers , put in new velvet and restore the finish.

    As as you view the photos you can see just how pure white the new stock is compared to the original scales . Had I not done anything they would have stuck out like a sore thumb .
    Didn't want to end up using the line from "My Cousin Vinny,,oh yeah,,YOU blend!"

    Its on on its way to becoming a nice set. Interesting shaped blades . Nice jimps on the top and very fine ones under the shaft. Looking forward to giving them a go.
