    Nice razor. I have the same one and it took a wonderful edge. The scales on mine looked just like yours with the wrinkled look and missing inlay. The goldwash on the tang was worn off as well. Here is mine before and after rescale.

    She must have been a pretty blade when new but aside from the gold wash on the etching there is little left on the worked spine or tang. She is a pale shadow of herself now but non the less still nice.

    Im sure with new scales this will be a very good looking razor i didnt even notice the goldwash on the worked spine until you mentioned it. And more importantly from a few post, i gather that this brand of razor takes a wondeful edge.

    I gotta go wood one this one. Hard maple or osage orange with amber shellac, finished with a nice clear coat. Beautiful blade sir.
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    I had one just like that as well, it really was a great shaver, and good looking too. Will be nice to see it with new scales

    I'm feeling lazy and am thinking aftermarket faux tortoise shell scales.
