I haven't done any scales in wood so should probably keep my mouth shut, but I won't. Could the scales be angled to be more with the grain? It looks like the break is exactly in what I would expect...

Thank You Sir,
Fixed it in my post.

Just went to Ross Tyser Custom Knives to check it out.

NICE!

Here's where I got mine.

Sure look like the same ones.

That Hoppes #9 smell is unmistakable.

Nearly as good as Bacon!!

Plenty of Company.

Consider having a TV installed in the dog house.

Are you of the belief that if you spread knowledge of this the Better Half will spread her displeasure?

If so, I hate to tell you that I don't believe that's the way it works! You're on your own,...

I am a fan of your work and brush handles like this are why. Nice.

I'm by no means an expert but that's sure what it looks like.

I've got to reshape a toe myself. I have a Tory Razor that was shortened just enough to look to short for it's scales when I got it,...

Best of Luck!!

I've had low wheel weight buckets in the past when I sent to many weights down range. :gwh:
I changed sources and no longer have a wheel weight bucket.

RezDog,
Guess my razors must all be within a reasonable variation because I've never noticed a difference in stropping comfort.

What difference does it make where the balance point is? The balance point will depend on the position of the scales in relation to the blade so the balance point will change when in use.

You done good!!!

I hate that all is not going as planned. I thought these things only happened to me. Since this is not the case I may work up the nerve to try a restoration of my own in the near future.
