Completed 13/16" Joseph Rodgers & Sons Straight Razor
Here are "Before" and after pictures of a 13/16" Joseph Rodgers & Sons Straight Razor I just finished restoring. I sealed the bone scales with CA. The pins are 1/16" brass rods. There was a slight crack in the back scale at the pivot pin, but this has been completely sealed, inside & out with CA and in no way affects the operation of the razor.

Very well done. I like that you reused the scales! A day and night difference.
