    Default new life for a Genco

    This Genco was cleaned up and honed by one of our newer members. He did a very good job on getting it shave ready. I don't know what it looked like before but I suspect it was a victim of scale rot or was soon to be.
    I just made the scales and pined it up for him. He is well on his way to great shaving as soon as the pony express gets it back to him.
    Enjoy

    Those scales are probalbly the most beautiful I've seen in a long time. If I ever need scales for a razor, I will be wanting a set just like those!
    Great work! Suits the Genco in every way! Perfect!
