I have the Hart 7/8 Polished Square Point in my sights and I am considering the Pearlex, White or Maple scales. Classicshaving.com gives you a choice when you order; however, several are on back order.
Does anyone have these scales and what do you think? Any pics?suveiro likes this.

I've got a 6/8 in the white resin and I think it looks pretty good. (No pics, sorry.)

Did you get your new razor? I'm interested to see what you think of it. Originally Posted by Steveorocks

It was my first Square Point so that required a little extra attention.
The only thing that didn't quite meet up to my expectations was the scales. They just seem like they needed a little bit more refinement. They are cheap to replace, so I think I might try some of the other scales they offer.Last edited by Yama86; 11-17-2011 at 07:38 PM.

I tried to order straight from Hart but I was automatically sent to Classic Shaving. I hope they don't mess up the hand honeing done by Hart. Originally Posted by Servant4Christ

My 7/8 Hart came from Classic Shaving ready to shave. No need to worry about it being ready to go, you'll just need to figure out what to do with your other razors.

Classic Shaving and Hart Steel are working together on the venture. I don't know the nitty-gritty details but it suffices to say that is the normal transaction course. There's a neat little article on the Hart Steel website under their "News" tab. It has a link to a nice article by Chris Moss where he says: Originally Posted by bmf2001

So you don't need to worry that Classic Shaving will damage the honing that Hart performs.
