    Default Puma "High Class" in Black Horn

    This beuaty came to me rescaled in some yellow scales from another razor and the scales were missing 2 bolster. ( I believe there are some origanal pictures of how I got it in the Show and Tell Forum, posted a few months ago) The old scales just didn't do this beauty justice. I didnt have to do much to the razor itself I did a little hand sanding and polishing on the back to remove a few water spots. The front was gently cleaned as I did not want to damage the beautiful gold. The scales are black horn, the wedge is a wedge I recycled from another razor I shaped to fit. The pins are brass with hand domed brass washer. I wanted the scales a little understated to show off the beautiful gold wash.
    Hope ya like it
    Tony

    You did a nice job keeping it a clean combo. What is the donor wedge made of?

    Excellent work! I always love a good set of horn scales. I'm getting the itch to try making some of my own. Now where did I put that jigsaw...

    Very Nice razor.
