what do you think about this for scales?
stabilized redwood burl, a bit showy, but kinda cool looking. plus it is REDwood, I'm thinking about using it for the scales on a RED head razor to give to my brother (who is also a redhead) for Christmas, if he turns out to enjoy straight shaving. which I can't see shy he wouldn't.

if the wood is stabilized does it still need to be sealed and what do you use?? this'll be the first set of scales I try myself. :eek:
