    Default Big and Little Georges

    The owner of the American Razor on my other thread also sent me these. He had a broken Wosty and a full size one. He wanted me to build a matching set so he'd have a Big and Little George.
    I made a batch of red acrylic as he liked the red I made for one of the other razors I've posted and went from there.
    Polished up the blades, made duplicate sets of scales, added a barbers notch to the little George in order to make it symmetrical by eliminating the "e" from the script and added an ivory wedge to them.

    OOPs,, forgot the original pic of the big George. As you can see the script was basically gone and the rust pits were in bad spots.

    That is perfect! I'm liking those Red Acrylic Scales too, gonna have to decide on some razors that need just that.
