Jerry, I found the wings on eBay https://www.ebay.com/itm/30-60-100pc...53.m1438.l2649 and just sanded off the loop as I thought it would look better and lay flatter on the scales. Thought about trying to inlay this but may try that next time as skills improve. Good luck on the night shift and be safe. Austin

I've been wanting to see some finished razors with your rosette collars. It looks great! The wings look like something a maker might have actually used on their razors. Nice work!

How thick is the liner?

This is what I used. https://www.texasknife.com/vcom/prod...oducts_id=1961 Comes in 6 different colors and sheets 6x12 inches. I bought red, black and white sheets which are .024" thick. This liner is fairly brittle and is difficult to saw, but does sand down, and polish up nicely. Used an epoxy glue on scales and liner. Worked great.
Had to sand down the eagles wings about 1/2 original thickness to get them to look right and not too bulky on the scales.
