Thanked: 17Try the pin test. Heat a pin (has to be red hot) and touch the scale (preferably on the INSIDE so you dont ruin the razor) and smell. If it smells like burning plastic - it probably is. If it smell like burning bone - It's probably not synthetic. The same is true for Ivory - but Ivory tends to smell like burning tooth (that icky smell you sometimes catch a wiff of at the dentists....).
Beuitful piece by the way.
Good luck....Last edited by Alchemist; 11-03-2009 at 08:20 AM.

Thanked: 19For anyone thinking to outbid me on this razor you should know that this razor is cursed so stay away for your own good. I am %100 sure that who ever owns this razor will get ingrown hairs and no one wants that. I'm only bidding on this because I know a special incantation that will release the razor from it's cursed.

FOrtunately for you, Justacat, I'm out of razor-buying money for the month....
Hope you win her! She's a beautiful razor and (no offense Chayes) with a bit of buffing to get the scuffs out, those scales will shine even more!
Bad news, Justacat.... I think I'm gonna go mortgage my family...
