    Bill, you're an evil man! Now, even if Nenad did send me a set of navy/indigo scales, I couldn't decide whether I'd want to keep them in a matte finish or polish them to transparency.. Maybe I should order 2 sets and look for 2 more razors with bad scales

    That matt looks better than I'd imagined, but based on the fact that My jaw ALWAYS drops off when I see those polished transparent ones, I'd be forced to go that way.

    Ilija, I have asked about the blue plexi, and all vendors have samples of it (it looks gorgeus) but noone carries it in stock I guess there is no demand for it here. I will try to make them order a piece for me. The clear finish is great, but the matte is even better, it goes clear when you wet it with water, that way you have them both. ;-)

    Hey, Jeff, nice Wunderedge... I just asked Bill to send it to me, to check the scales for, uhmm... hardnes and all... You will get it back August some time. Slow postal service here

    Matte it is I'm looking forward to it bro. I'll have to check when my uncle will go to Skopje next time, to have my dad bring him a bottle of old moonshine for you. Just tell me what you prefer (plum/pear/appricot).. I personally recommend plum, since he is from Mionica

    Just got home from work and the Wonder-Plexi-Duck was waiting for me. Great work on the blade and mounting Bill, thanks again. Nenad, as always, the scales are SWEET! Can't wait to hone this puppy up tomorrow!

    Actually he probably already have a good stock, but let me know in advance if you or your dad will be going to Belgrade so I can make sure my dad gets some. I just wish I could get my hands on it that easily, and get it past CDN customs. Well the appricot is clear like water and last time I went, I transported it in a spring water bottle. Even used some clear glue to glue the ring back on, thus making it appear like it's never been opened
