5/8 "Gem" in Celluloid, 15/16 Tally Ho in Horn

First one here is a little 5/8, American steel I believe. Faux abalone celluloid, nickel silver pins. My wife is giving SR shaving a shot with this one!

I made the scales to fit up into the shoulderless tang. Looks pretty nice when closed up.

Second one, a Tally Ho 15/16 near wedge. Beautiful swayback! I actually scaled this a while ago but never posted it here ;)

The imperfections on the reverse side scale are actually within the grain of the horn. Brass/silver stacked washers, brass pins, translucent buffalo horn, bone wedge.

Forgot to mention, I gave this blade a sort of satin finish
