It might be possible but Ivory scales usually didn't have collars on the pins. I hope he is right & that they are Ivory. Ivory scales are usually also very thin, much thinner than conventional scales.

Think I'm in luck then. Can't remember if had collars on the pins, will see when get back. I had asked him to replace the scales because I thought they were too flimsy and light to be anything decent. From what you say that's a good sign. Thanks a lot for your help.
Doesnt look like ivory to me.
Nice score. Loving the Tallyho
Sorry bout confusion, mine looks similar but is not the one in the photos on this thread.
The scales are not ivory. To bad it would have been cool.
Sorry conversation hijacked your thread a wee bit. Lovely looking bunch of razors you got there. Hope they sharpen tidy and sharpen up well for you.
Doesn't bother me at all. Sometimes the best thing about a good conversation is the way they evolve.
Nobody mentioned the W. M. Morley and sons, these razors take a wicked edge and are fantastic shavers, a good candidate for restoration.
