    I really want to see what the final color will look like so I put the less damaged scale in to soak overnight.

    Overnight. I didn't know you soaked them that long!
    I guess I'll put it and the first set of scales back in to soak longer then.

    Its hard to follow all the proper steps when you just want to get it together and hone it. Ha. S9aking for a week? Wow! Guess it will be a while before.you get that one ready for a shave. But its looking good. Nice work!

    For honing without scales, Randy used craft sticks/popsicle sticks taped to the tang to get work done.

    I need more t-pins to put more razors in, but it is as organized as I can get it today.

    Shaun, that is an absolutely beautiful display cabinet. Certainly the centerpiece of any room.
