Look pretty nice overall, blade, scales, and pins, but the wedge is not a wedge and looks like the blade doesnt center between the scales!
Beeswax finish. Where they soaked in melted beeswax or was it a rub in procedure?
Scales & pins look good. To help with the alignment issue check this link:

Wedges rather than spacers often help with smooth operation & ideal fitting especially with razors with fatter tangs.

Others have addressed the issues already. But over all it looks pretty good :)
I like what you've done.
Did it have the original scales on it 'cause I'm looking for a 'Black Diamond' inlay for my two day set?
I'll have to use wood more 'cause it looks so good when it is done right, like yours
