    Cool Full Custom Restore - Frederick Reynolds

    Fully buffed and polished, just a few small blems left from the pitting, Robert decided on Black Linen Micarta for the scales I added in the MOP (recon) wedge,
    The pins are NiAg with Domed SS washers, internal bearing washers are Brass..

    Nice heavy Sheffield steel which is honed to a smooth edge on my Select Coticule

    Looks great! I really like the shape of the scales, understated but distinguished. A perfect combo for an old English blade IMHO....

    Very, very clean looking. This piece looks like it will give a shave that will rival any razor. Nice job.
