Thiers Le Grelot - Klas Törnblom - F.W. Söderen & Co. - The Norwegian razor maffia
3 re scales that are going back to Norway. The blades were perfect and didn't need any work.
I got specific directions as what designs to use for each razor. Same with the scale material, washers, pins, wedge,...
'Le Grelot' got dressed with the blue Pauacrylic, transparent wedge and ss pins and washers.
F.W. Söderen & Co. is a gorgeous shoulderless blade. It has a very elegant design. It got wrapped with faux tortoise, , transparent wedge and ss pins and washers.
Klas Törnblom looks like a mini version of the F.W. Söderen & Co. I got to decide the scale design but it needed to stay pretty much traditional. Same materials were used as the F.W. Söderen & Co.
Tomorrow they will visit the hones and then start their long voyage to a beautiful country called Norway.
Enjoy!

NIIIIIIIIIICE !!!!!
SS pins must be fun to peen
The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

Those look great! Only one thing - where you've described them, you've said they all have blue pauacrylic scales - you might want to fix that up.

The tornblom is just stunning. A buddy of mine is going to Olso with the rock band The Killers. He promises to find me a razor somewhere. I could have given him this thread is a rough guide to Eskilstuna
