First Attempt at Scales, lots of pics.

[Maxi]

Gentlemen,

Here are some pics of two razors. One is a Boker King Cutter, and the other a W&B Special. They are my first attempts at my own scales. I used domestic oak for both, different stains. The boker scales have had a couple coats of Tung oil hand rubbed, and the spacers for both are cow bone. I used microfasteners for the pins.

The W&B blade was pretty straight forward, but the Boker needed some work. I lost a bit of the etching on the blade, but I'm ok with that. That is another learning experience altogether.

I had a lot of fun playing around, and this would definately not have been possible without the workshop forum and Brads videos. I must have watched them ten times! Thank you.

Enjoy the pics (sorry about the quality, I have a regular camera).
