    I'm drooling over this razor.
    There is always a solution, whether it's already present or if you have to make it.

    Impressive. Really, really impressive. What did you use to finish the handles? Are they just polished or is there a finish going on there. I dig.

    Well as far as the collars go I was going to use them but i had to file a little off the top to get the pins out sadly I don't have a drill. And they were also not solid so they were kind of digging in to the bone scales. I still have them on hand but don't know what to do with them because they are in pretty poor shape.

    As far as the scales i didn't use any finish on them i just soaked them in neatsfoot oil for about 5 or 6 hours and the lightly wiped them down before re-pinning it.

    Also thanks for the tip on not making it so curvy.
