Thats just my point - I doubt these were put on by the manufacturer. I have 2 other Schulze's and the celluloid on the celluloid handled one has not shrunk over time. For that matter I have...

I understand what you are saying, although these scales were not designed for that particular razor. Blades and scales were likely sitting in boxes as old stock and these happened to be fitted - ...

Received the razor and it shaves very nicely. The scales aren't as bad as I thought, but they were not made for this razor as Max advised they were probably 'thrown' on.

I can see this as the...

After speaking to one of the restoration gurus, I have obtained a quotation for the work. He also told me that it is unlikely that the scales were specifically designed for that razor - they were...

You reckon replicate the gunstock, or just plain ol scale shape?

Its not that I'm indecisive, I lack experience or previous interest in rescales being a fan of originals, and appreciate your...

I'd have to disagree with that. I have yet to see another. French point Solingens are extremely rare. With spine work also?

See I'm the opposite. I have 2 pink shirts I wear to work sometimes, one with white cuffs and collar. I hate those scales though! Pink ivorywood isn't so bAd, but these...I'll wait till I see it in...

Damn it guys, you're making me feel guilty for wanting to rescale. Trouble is blades like that are hard to find!

They just aren't my taste, but the blade is.

I think grey transclucent horn would be great if I can transfer the logo - and use brass hardware with a brass wedge to complement the gold logo and goldwash.

Keep the original shape you think?

That was your revisor? I saw it a few days ago, looked totally factory! Undream does a great job.

I'd definately want to save the Solingen logo if it were possible. If its an inlay...

It is a shame, I know! Why did they make such a bad choice of scales for such a good looking razor? Females didn't use straights back then I'm sure, so why?

Im thinking like what Steve at The Invisible Edge did with another French point:

This razor was going for 120 Euros on the bay. I made a much lower offer, and to my surprise, won. New old stock Schulze. The scales not being quite to my taste are bright pink travelling scales...
