    Default Found new scales for CF Schwartz & Co razor

    Some time back I found this razor http://straightrazorpalace.com/show-...igh-class.html with busted scales. I managed to find a JATCO razor with a junk blade for a donor set of faux tortoise scales. Honed her up and she is back in business. I left the JATCO logo on the scales not knowing how deep they were inset and whether I would be able to sand out the depression after.

    I really like that High Class Bob. I have to agree with pinklather; the tortoise scales match that beautiful blade very nicely.

    Thanks guys for the comments. The original JATCO blade was no slouch either except for missing a bit of the blade and a real pity too. Sometimes you get lucky in a franken razor match up.
