Thread: Early William Greaves Scale Template Please

I am in need of a template for scales of William Greaves and Sons that would be period correct to the razor for restoration. I was going to keep the originals but one has a crack on both sides of the pin and the other leaves the blade peaking when closed which could make for a bad day.

I believe this is close to what your looking for:

Try this file:///C:/Users/Richard/Downloads/scale%20templates.pdf

If it doesn't work it's labeled Coup Chou. Can't remember where I got it.

You will have to copy and paste it.

Also try post #5 of this thread http://straightrazorpalace.com/works...-database.html

very nice that you are trying to get close to period on the scales .. I have some older Greaves that I made my own little pattern for but recently have cut out some new ones to replace a lot of the ones I made earlier that gave a more modern look ..

I would almost go off of the scales you have on the razor on the right , they look a bit slimmer then the one on the left and go with a brown or black horn ...

check this link out .. this is one of our members pages .. ( srry if im wrong but i think this is "Voidmonster " page , lots of love for this page and information !!
