Warped mother of pearl handle...
I bought this nice Fram razor from an antique store with mother of pearl scales. It wasn't until I got it home that I noticed that one of the scales is warped. So when you go to close it, if you're not careful the blade will catch the handle.
I've heard that dipping them in boiling water then pressing them immediately will flatten them. I really just don't have the know-how to take them apart and put it back together. I'd also like to keep everything the way I found them originally.
Could I possibly dip the scales in boiling water and then place a wedge of some sort in them and let it sit for a while? Or would that make everything worse?
