Thread: Bismark with "Garibaldi" scales

I've always liked these "photo frame" type scales as I don't see them that often. This blade was in decent shape but the scales were so-so.
I cleaned up the blade and left it in a brushed finish but polished the spine and shaft.
Since I didn't want to use the scales but wanted the photo I went to my to do pile and found a nearly matching color set of scales on another razor. So I took them.
I removed the photo from the original scales and went about making a recess for it to sit in. It has to fit flush.
After a bit of fitting,,,cutting,,fitting etc. I got it to sit flush. And since the posts were gone I made pockets for them to fit into and made the pockets a bit wider on the bottom to act as anchors for the post to fit into when I epoxied it in place.
A fun evening project.
