Sorry, the pics don't do it no justice. It's a listing on the bay. I think it is MOP, the white part......

If the white is MOP, I'll bet the black is jet. I axed about that over here once and no one said a damn word.

I recommend you only eat one.
Anymore than that, kinda slows down. Especially during final execution.

In spite of the fact I am not buying ANYTHING MORE for this project (with exception of the box and materials), I saw that one, Steve.

That is the 'old' celluloid like in old Case razors. They have actual glitter in them with clear over. Stuff on the old Cases is crumbling, so I would be afraid of it. Mine are solid colors and have a black liner with exception of 2.
They are quite solid, flexible, and stable. Anyway, I have too many as it is! ;)

Well, I'm sure a few of us would be willing to take a few wayward razors home. You know, so you can keep making them and not go through stripey-withdrawals ;)

Just funnin' Tom.............I don't expect you to spend anymore money on your project than needed.

I have finished this Bigelow and Dowse striper. (yay!)

Attachment 231191 Attachment 231192

Rides a bit high in front as I thinned out the wedge a LOT to keep it in the scales. Don't bother me a bit!

Attachment 231193

Best part is, it pinned up easy and centered perfectly with no trickery! I think that is a testimonial to the stability of this type of old celluloid. No shrinkage, nor warpage in any of them.

Attachment 231195

Just to add; Bigelow and Dowse seems to have been a big deal back in the day!

Har! I know that, Steve! TBH, I tracked down SenorSteve and we made a deal on that last one you showed.
It put me where I needed to be! Thanks!

It is cool to put all these fine blades to use which were sitting around. All but a few came with bad scales, a few in slick black.
Most are fairly obscure, but all are quality and with little use on them. Should be a great set of users!
Now, to the box! :)

You would have liked to see the two sets I did simultaneously.
Think I drug that out for a year or so.

Found it! Follow the links back at the beginning of each thread. Then go forward from the beginning. :D

I have four more to do. They all need a lot of work but the puma needs the most. I'm going to be working on new scales for all of them on the next day off. I hope it's soon!

Go easy on a Puma, Eric. Most are thin and not much can be done!

A little clean up, and a new set of skins for a Sanssouci that belongs to AlanQ, a member of the forum, and proud owner of a Outback anvil. Hey what are buds for, if we cant help each other out.
