Got this razor ($40) from England on Ebay. It showed up today with its natural scales aka IVORY making it through customs. I wished I had taken the before pictures, but with a dremel some .0025 diamond paste and about four hundred laps on the stones. It shaves like it did over 100+ years ago. I'm a sucker for ivory scales since they are getting harder to find without cracks and chips. This one cleaned up with toothpaste, toothpicks. I also followed the advice of a few folks and got some T.O.B. Street Sandalwood soap. Loved it! Not bad for a little less than two hours.
