Are both sides of the scales in good shape? Any insect damage? Looks pretty solid. Great razor by the way. I ruined a great set of old horn scales making a newbie mistake, so I appreciate horn scales in good condition even more now!

The scales for the razor are not bad. There are some small cracks starting bit the wedge but nothing that cant be easily fixed.
I payed $70 for the tusk. He had $85 on it and i talked him down.

Hehehe, I'd have been more "shut up and take my money".

Here are the measurements

It's definitely Walrus. If it were Elephant, I'd be chomping at the bit to take it from you Colin. Still, very good price for the size you have. I paid $110 to get the 2" length of Walrus I have.

Ugh, $110 for two inches??

That was with priority shipping and also Canadian dollars.

Oh, I forgot. Also with legal papers and Province transfer papers.

As soon as someone shows their tusk, pixelfixed has to whip his out and show off.
