    I love the matching old scales too. They are often fixed up or replaced, but I really enjoy the silver streaks and raised grain with an old blade.

    SHe embraces her age and is not embarrassed by a few lines. Nice.

    Bit of a flaw in the blade with the stabilized rust, but it is a purely cosmetic thing. As to the scales, I left it because I had just gone through the resurrection of my stubby W&B, and wanted to keep the next one as "original" as possible. This one was advertised as shave ready, and lived up to the billing, so I have not touched but to strop and shave. Well, that has not happened for a while, as I have been using mostly DEs lately, but still . . .
