    Really beautiful. Sometimes there's nothing prettier than a simple straight with black horn scales.

    Man Glen that is a gorgeous restore. Guess I need to get off my duff and send my W & B to you. Your work never ceases to amaze.

    DUUUUUUUUUDE ! That's fantastic! That's the first straight I ever bought. $5.00 at a flea market. Rusty and trashed. I spent hours and hours hand-sanding the pits out before realizing that I didn't have the skill or ability to ever finish it. I'm so glad I sent it to Glen to restore it. Can't wait to see the rest when they're done. You guys are in for a treat.

    Great job! It looks as I have gone back in time 150 years and stepped into a razor shop! Amazing!

    Cool Second of the Five,,, Joseph Elliot 7/8+

    Full Custom Restore on this one, using what I think are some of the most beautiful Honey Horn blanks that have crossed my bench from Masecraft...
    I used the 3M Tri-m-ite sandpaper to polish the horn, the Lead wedge is from a set of Vintage scales
    Pins are Nickel Silver and I used stacked SS washers to hold it all together with new Brass bearing washers inside....
