That's coming along nicely Paul. Are you going to make some horn scales?
I have several sets already from olds which I could use. But I may make new ones since this one, once it's done, will be almost like new.
More sanding and polishing

You can see my ugly mug reflected.
I think I'm finished on the blade except for final polish on the aforementioned W&B The Celebrated Hollow Ground Razor FBU but still more sanding and soaking on a set of scales. More on that later.
In between decided to clean up this non FBU The Celebrated Hollow Ground Razor.

This looked like it might be a quick polish up but there was too much delamination and flaking away of the horn show side near the pivot pin.

So I decided to take her apart and give her a proper clean up. Good thing because there was a LOT of grungy grossness under the pivot.

The way some people care for their razors is just atrocious.
Did some fill with CA to build it up.

Waiting for it to cure thoroughly then to sand it down properly.
