Looks great. The scales are pretty neat, especially when combined with the grind.

That is a sweet looking razor. You picked the right set of scales for that blade, perfectly matched. Beautiful restore Glen.

I'm not usually big on the figured scales, but after seeing these I know the reason. I don't like them when they're all the same colour (like on Morley). These ones I like. There's a texture to them, over and above the design on the front scale.
That's a nice lookin' blade for sure Glen!amb likes this.

I refer to that grind as a "bellied" one. They shave like a half hollow and appear more concave. I, personally like them. Fine job on this one. It is most awesome!

Wow G. How did you wrestle that one that one from the scale collectors ? LOL... A deadly snipe maybe
Great job on the restore of course. Might be worth a mild acid etch on the next sacrificial one that comes by to test the Damascus possibility.
The grind reminds me of that George W Korn patent grind . Goes by a few names I think. "Double Hollow" comes to mind but I don't know that he actually gave it a name.
