picture request- Ivory scales with a liner
So I tried to tighten up the pins on my Ivory Talbot and sons razor, and split the scales
I was angry at myself for being so careless, but then realized that the accident gave me a chance to try something new! I contacted Glen, and my razor is going to Idaho on Monday for a nice set of liners for the (now cracked
) Ivory handles.
While I patiently wait for my razor to return, can anyone tide me over with some pictures of your Ivory scales with liners?
Right now I am going with black liners, but I have a few days to change my mind if something catches my eye

Can't exactly push the like button, but good idea with the liner. black as thin as you can get would look pretty sharp.

Would bone inspire you?
Very thin and fragile old bone scales laminated to some white G-10.
G-10 was picked because it is so very strong, even that thin. I think the G-10 I used is less than a 1/16 of an inch.It's not what you know, it's who you take fishing!
