    Default My winnings from the Scent/Cent contest

    Being a second or third place winner in Nelsons contest won me this razor. Im happy i got this one and didn't win. Lol.

    7/8 French faux frame-back. Its going to need a little work but a nice addition to my collection.

    Nice razor, Jerry-I still like my winner's bottle of Royall Vetiver, but that is pretty cool! Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see that it needs much other than a polish and hit the hones (unless that's a slight frown starting just ahead of the heel?).
    There are many roads to sharp.

    Hone wear on both sides. The bevel is a little wacky but it might just be how its made. The scales are warped and very thin. So making a new set now. Should get it done by Sunday or Monday.
    The original scales are horn and super thin so I figured they will work great with some liners on another blade in the future.
    I could have let it goes as it was. Its in great shape. But i wanted to make it a little better. Thanks Aaron. Enjoy your scents.

    Sometimes it's good to lose.
