So I was given a 133 red imp razor. It doesn't have the original scales, it has cheap yellowed plastic scales that I'd like to replace. My dad recently restored an old bench my great grandmother had and discovered that the painted wood seat was redwood and he has several scrap pieces left over. I'm wondering if anybody has opinions on if this reclaimed redwood would be a good material for scales. I'd like to pair it with a brass wedge and pins to really set off the color of the wood. Thoughts?
