    Default Just brought these back to life from junk Box.

    Rummaging thru my junk fix it box I managed to salvage these using parts off other razors.
    #1: 11/16th #1678 Hibbard,Spencer,Bartlett & Co. set in aluminum scales salvaged from a large wedge.

    #2: 5/8 Genco Cutlery Co. shortened to 2 5/8th inches.Scales are from a Gold Bug that were broken at the pivot.A cut here a grind there and this is what I came up with.

    #3: Another Hibbard,Spencer,Bartlett & Co. 5/8th, shoulderless.Scales were from a Clauss donar razor.

    All were honed and are GREAT Shavers to add to my stable.

    Well done. I like what you did with the GoldBug scales

    Good job. I've been meaning to have a rumage through my spare parts box one of these days and see what I perhaps make up out of it.
