Hi All,
I cleaned up this old blade and I built new scales
in faux tortoise. the new scale doesn't match with the old design,
I preferred a new project based on my taste.
thank

HEy mate, looks great, I know what you mean about the scales i think it's the barber's notch that clashes, you did a nice job though, I just picked up a joseph allen and sons as well planning to clean it up a little it was in pretty good nick when I got it though so probably won't need muchQuote:

I Have another J.Allen & Sons waiting for a restoration.
It's older and greater than this one. Since it has a horn
scales (with some worm bite :( ) I'll try to save
the original scale
i think it came out really nice !!
Very nice!
Those new scales are nice looking for sure! I've been looking for one of the Joseph Allen blades that has the J Allen stamp rather than the Joseph. My initials J. Allen, so you see the attraction.
Good lookin razor, enjoy.
Nice job :tu
I like how the scales flare near the pivot. Very nice.
Nicely done. Interesting design to the scales and the whole fit and finish looks great.
Looking very nice the scales look great, nice choice, good work Enjoy!
you sir are a magician with your hands. that is so beautiful! what a great looking razor!!
I love those scales. I must confess I didn't read what you wrote. I just looked at the pictures, and WOW! Very nice!
