Looks like typical bartop stuff? You can make scales on top of liners with that!
Some I did with 'flip-flop' decorations from Hobby Lobby on top of old Novelty Cutlery liners.

Cleaned up a Waterville Cutlery Co. and a Taylor Eye Witness today. The blades both needed cleaning and a bit of polishing and the scales needed some tightening, cleaning and polishing as well. On the blades I tried using a bit of polish on a scrap of linen fire hose and it worked well. The Waterville has horn scales and the Taylor has some plasticoid scales that smell like new tires. The Waterville was a breeze to hone and the Taylor fought me but I eventually won.

Those are very nice, Tuzi! :D
Funny how we sometimes think a hollow should be easy and a wedge difficult.
It does not always seem to be that way. I think.
Well...!! Yet another Waterville, rises from the dead,all different design's. Two of the three shave great. Hmmmm...I wonder. [emoji56]
Nice work Tuzi! that's a sexy shoulderless Waterville!

Honed up a Alfred J Krank for a co-worker. Looks like the blade had been shortened at one point. Even shorter, it will make a decent shaver. Seemed to take an edge well. More narrow than most of the razors in my collection.

Ok got one done and one to go! At the pivot end she is about .114 thick and the wedge end about .147. Sanded up to 1200 and polished by hand, oddly enough I thought this stuff was going to be black but it is brown when light comes through or hits it just right. If I can now make its twin I will be very happy.
