restored By Josh Earl
Just got these back from Josh. The pictures don't do them justice. The first two were rescaled, polished and honed by Josh. The third one was a W&B blade and set of scales I made and asked Josh to pin on the blade for me. He did that and cleaned and honed it for me also. He dose a fantastic job. Have not shaved with them yet, but they look like they will be just fine.All three are centered and tight.The finish on the scales is flawless,excellent work. Thanks Josh.

I love that wood on the first one. What kind of wood is that?

Glad you liked 'em, Tim. You certainly were patient. My turnaround times are improving a lot these days...

how did you finish the wood on the second one so that it was watertight but the grooves are still defined?
