W&B shoulderless save

Finally got the last of the blades with broken scales put together. This one drove me nuts, make that nuttier. Had to straighten a bent tang and really play with different strokes honing it. I think rolling X strokes worked the best. Actually shaves better than the ugly hugely uneven bevel would suggest. Nothing like taking on a project a couple of levels above your skill set. The plastic scales came from another failed project. The domed nickel silver washers on the pivot pin were salvaged from the busted scales. Lesson 2, never throw anything out. It was a slice, can't wait to find a few more victims. BTW just love shoulderless blades, they make shaving around the mustache heel first so much easier.
