See this also for the same effect. Though it looks like this one has had work done on it, I don't think the finish is original. (from ebay recently)

Zak, that's the first time I've seen that one! Marvelous job & terrific work. It's a beauty. That reminds me of the Old English ones I see.................that I have a few of from different makers!:tu
Outstanding job. I'm really impressed that you were able to save the scales.
Someday I hope to Find a J.Barber Razor as it is my last name,I did find this long ago tho:)

There was a nice one on the bay the other day with ivory scales for bin but it sold. I thought about it & passed because whoever did the scales didn't smooth 'em out good enough!
That turned out very nice, it'll be around for another 100+ years now!
Very nice restore! What a unique treasure you have given new life to...
Very well done Sir . Kudos !
