    Bob,
    I have one very similar to that. It has an ivory tang cover & the pin was only holding the tang cover on it & was not part of the pivot. I remember it had no makers name or it was worn off. I need to find it but I think I know where it's at.

    Good luck Bob. What are you going to do to repair the scales and tang cover? I too have a razor that needs some tang cover work so thats for pointing out it was not peened. I'll have to take a close look at mine.
    It's just Sharpening, right?

    Thanks. I am going with crazy glue on the scales nd once the tang cover is epoxied in that should be covered too. No idea if the crazy glue will work out so don't do anything I am trying.

    Whew! That seems pretty deep for you, Bob!

    You can do it!


    So lots of progress in my work area/grungy office.
    Down to a concrete floor with glue coming off a bit at a time. Gritty. Vacuum constantly.

    Still, a few good work areas. The old teacher's desk has draws right across. Big!
    No more razzers under towels!

    Im with you Tom, I have been dealing with too much disorganization for far too long.

    Bob with those scales having cracks at the pins, I think you will be better off with a liner or with eyelets/collars from Babar. The eyelets will take the pressure load from the scales and apply it to the pivot or wedge, still allowing the scales to function correctly. Tom did a thread called how I pin MOP or similar. I cannot search from this device. It shows the collars/eyelets from an eBay seller with the user name of razor handles and how they work.

    I have a nice razor coming tomorrow. I'll submit before and after photos soon. It has a great looking spine and wild point/toe.
