Galatea
Wanted to post this Galatea I did scales for a while back, one of my favorite razors.
Koa wood with a thin G10 liner, silver hardware with a CA finish.
Original scales were plain black plastic

Beautiful, Alfredo. Every time I see a razor dressed up in your beautiful scales I have the impulse to send all my razors to you to be redone.

Nice, first Galatea I have seen. Must have been a popular blank in Spain.

Actually not too popular from what I gather. Originally Posted by Grazor

I know the wherebouts of all ten.
I have one
My friend in Spain has the second
Royce has the third
And the last seven are part of a seven day set.
They are the same style as most 14s, great steel, takes and holds an edge.
