Thread: scale

I have an older razor in very good condition. The only item is that the handle is loose. By that I mean when I shave, I don't have any meaningful counter balance of the razor. I know one or all of the scales may need to be refubished, however I don't want to replace them. Mostly because I just not up for the task. I there any substance that will give some friction so the handle will stay in place? Thanks

Re-pinning is the only way I know of.

You could try tightening the pins by lightly taping the pins. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Just tap very lightly with a very small hammer or other tool and be careful not to crack the scales.
