Contacted the seller today, the lot was used by his grand dad; so I am going to assume American. Either celluloid or that hard rubber compound. They won't take a shining.

Hehe, horn scales only stink when I clean them up, or when I open my Columbia razor and stick my nose to it. However, I'll probably be selling this razor.

But, alas, I know that stink too; and its not it. : \ I completely agree...

I was sure they were plastic/celluloid when I bought this razor to restore. However, after cleaning it up, it stinks like horn. On an aside...I really hate the smell of horn in the morning.... : \ ...
