Hah! A worm? Worms like live horns? Or they find razors in frontier cabinets? Also, if it's horn: does one work on horn (in terms of sanding and polishing) the same way one works on wood? More like plastic? I wanted to clean them (the scales) up a bit but I wanted to make sure I wouldn't regret it. And my Bow - thanks. I love the thing - it's changing all my ideas about what razors I like, which ones I'd like to try, etc.
