    Default Jonathan Crooks FBU

    I was going through some things & I had totally forgotten about this razor but I now remember it because it had a bad scale on it. It was like someone left it near something hot & melted one of the scales on it so I'm going to have to make some new scales for it. The blade it just a hair under 7/8. I have some bone, some rams horn, some black scale material & some dark honey horn blanks. I don't know what type of scales to go with yet, maybe the dark honey horn or the black horn.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I don't know about the multi-acrylic glow in the dark Jimmy.......................
    Whichever ones I go with, it's gonna look good! Look here http://straightrazorpalace.com/works...h-ivory-3.html at the bone scales I made for the Wade & Butcher about a year ago.

    What Jimmy said, WITH port and starboard LED lighting.

    Don't forget the mirror polish and making all the marks hard to read as well.

    Great old blade.

    Do what Tom said.
