Thanked: 21source for tortoiseshell?
I found an Ern razor in an antique shop. The scales are tortoise, but cracked at the wedge pin (which is odd, but whatever) and the surface of the scales are cracking, like aged plastic. I really like the look of the razor, and would like to make new scales to be as close to original as I can get.
Where can I find some tortoise shell material to make new scales? My local Rockler doesn't seem to have anything but pen blanks and I don't think those will work very well.
