I've repaired a few bone scales with CA and baking soda. It works extremely well.

A good long soak in peroxide or bleach, should clean them up quite a bit.

i believe they are bone as there are pores showing on the other side. they are very thin though.

Super cool Packwood.............it earned that age spot....don't botox it (IMO and I will likely be in the minority)

“I will likely be in the minority”

No you’re not. I have a few bone and Ivory, with glued cracks, they will stay that way.

I would be concerned about the size of that crack though. At least glue it.

That is a nice razor. I really love razors like that and for some reason I love to see them as is and used. Keep us posted on the outcome.

Oh yeah, those are bone alright. I have a few of those Packwood's. Some are the same design, different name. One of mine is a Wosty.
