Thread: Wilbert Cutlery Army Special

I just got a Wilbert army special and I think it is very attractive razor I will attach some pictures as soon as I figure out how. I restored the blade but the scales were broken and beyond repair I am getting ready to start making scales for it but I do not know, we'll really anything about the process, but specifically all hat size pins it will need or how thick a spacer should be. You guys are always very helpfull. Any insight other than "you are stupid" would be great

here is a picture of my blade that does need a good honing but I think she is purdy. Also I do not know how to not make it right side up.

Best advice I can give is chose what you want and have fun with it. You will be surprised how much you like what you have done if you have fun with it

Good advice fun is the name of the game

Good looking blade.
