    This razors in real good shape and should clean up nicely. Looks like a good one to practice you scale repairs on... While u make yourself a fresh pair.

    That patina is NICE!!! I would try to keep it if I could. Maybe just do a light light polish (if theres no rust) to clean it up a bit but still keep the age to it. Beautiful razor!

    There's probably a state registry for those things. We could check him out huh?

    I was thinking he could just hide it at my place. Just in case.

    As for scales, my opinion is old choppers require Horn or Amboyna Burl, with a classic shape. But go with what you like.
    Amboyna Burl...that even sounds awesome!

    Think I've seen that before...any chance of an example?
