Well I got it unpinned. And if anybody would like these scales just let me know and Ill gladly send them out to you.

And....unfortunately there was a crack in the blade...but I think I dodged a bullet with this one because the crack is about 10-12mm away from the toe side of the razor(Just toe?) and goes up about 50% of the way to the spine. I am probably just going to grind the blade back a bit, maybe make the toe rounder(French?)

Here are some picutures of when I took the razor apart, and after some light sanding and buffing
