Very nice indeed. Swedish razors are great shavers...more than likely the two are ivory by the look of them in the photo. Great finds!

Nice Heljestrand! I love mine and it has the same ivory scales. The grain showed in your photos a little. Great shaver. I don't have a Tornblom, but yours looks to have ivory scales as well. Nice scores all.

Good job! Came out very well. You will enjoy your shaves with that Swede for many years. I am always very careful when stropping razors with ivory scales to rest my little finger on the scales with NO pressure, because they are so easy to crack. I would rather nick my strop! Nice thing about the Heljestrand tang is it is to easy to grip. Nice collector piece you have.
