    As I am trying to do pairs, this set won’t be part of the four I am making in this colour, simply because they decided they needed to be slightly different. Redesign on the fly.

    Those horn scales are really beautiful and they fit the razors perfectly.

    Thanks. The scale design was a collaboration between Tom and I. I am working on the last set in this colour, and will switch colours shortly. It might be boring to see the same set over and over but there is a change coming.

    They do look great. Looks like you have found the smooth, flowing 'banana' we discussed.
    The relationship of the pin-hole to the heel of these razors is different than most blades.
    The correct 'swoop' done along the whole length of the scale has to be spot-on to keep the scales from being too wide.
    I have lots of scales around and as test fitting the heel pokes out the bottom every time!

    Most excellent work, Rez.

    Ok. I am sure everyone is getting tired of this project. On last set of scales and a group photo of the two pair.
