Genco Easy Aces Rebuild - W&B Special
Oh Mr Bladerunner your's are right here !!!!
These are two I just finished up for Robert the first one in the pic is a W&B Special that has been put back close to factory...
I had these scales sitting in the shop from another W&B, so I re-polished the razor, fixed the jacked up heel, and put the *Special* blade into these factory scales...
Now the second one was a bit more work, First I re-polished the blade to a nice glossy satin.. Then re-blued the tang, and put it in some Swirled Gold acrylic scales, all brass hardware, and a black acrylic wedge finish it up... I brought this one back to as close to factory as I could, with using all new stuff....

Very nicely done as always. I really like the gold swirel acrylic, kinda looks like horn. Its hard to tell in the pic is that acrylic tranparent at all?
