Razor is a 7/8 W&B fully restored with the tang stamps fully intact. Had a bit of pitting to work through, but is now pitting free, though I did have to round the french point a little to remove some pitting there on the edge. Scales are made from Real Abalone Shell that is enclosed within a thin red acrylic backing and a colorless, clear acrylic front. The wedge spacer is made out of black G10 and is completely flush with the scales with no gaps. The peening was done with nickel/silver alloy rod and stainless steel washers. The razor sits tight in the pivot pin and centers absolutely dead on.

I initially never liked the look of shell scales, but after this I'm definitely going to make one of my personal razors in this.

I absolutely love this razor and it is hard letting it go, but I still have a stack of W&B's to work through so I'm sure I'll get one done to replace it in my personal stash.
