Just picked this up from the Bay... It needs a new set of scales. I may actually try my hand at making some. Only some minor rust on it that should polish out easily. Let me know what y'all think!

The blade looks to be in nice condition,,,,,,thank you for sharing it.
Thanks I think it is! It should hone up nicely. Now I need suggestions for scales. I'm thinking wood and beginner set/style.
Good looking razor. I have the same model and it is one of my favorites.
Aside from the obvious general condition if you look at the spine and see little and even hone wear it is a thumbs up. If you look at the heel and it don't look low to the edge of the blade that is another thumbs up. That combined with a known quality brand and you have a worthy subject for restoration. Nice score.
Nice blade! Griffon sold good cutlery. In fact, they were in NYC, but had their own factory in Solingen, the "Perfectum Factory" !
I just finished rescaling one last week, they are great shavers.
