    As always, nice work!

    I'll bite, do I see some kind of inner friction washer/double washer?

    The pin isn’t stock, not sure what that means besides something at some point happened to it, whether it was an earlier restore or the scales were a new set, not sure.

    Modern nail head type replacement pin on the pivot. Hit too hard and broke out the scale?

    Yeppers

    Can't fool SRP

    They are modern pins so the razor was at the very least taken apart and restored in the past
