    Default RanTanKaRus pair in Ivory

    I have had this pair of Engstroms in black bakelite for a while. Wonderful shavers, both of them. Since reading the thread in the Auction forum about Ivory and risk of selling it, I decided to use up some scales I had been holding on to. If you cannot sell it, use it! The little 4/8 smiler is pinned collarless and the 13/16 one is pinned with collars original to the scales. A very nice pair of Swedes!
    Thanks,
    Tom

    Very nice. Those scales go very well with both those razors. I had been looking for a razor with ivory scales, but never found one. They're both very elegant.
