Original(?) wood scale restoration
I have what may or maynot be old school wood scales. Ether way they are very old from what I can tell. This razor has pins and wedge from the same material, lead or pewter, and kind of loose from drying or wear... both probably.
I'm itching to restore this razor with the scales intact, however there looks to be a crack at one of the pins that may be an issue.
So how does one restore old wood scales? What would one use to "hydrate" the wood or what ever the term is... "stabelize??"
And what about the pins, these things are HUGE, I haven't tried removing them just yet and they are recesed enough to be a pain to try fixing in place.
I'm working on better pics (suggestions welcom on angles) at the moment.
Any insight would be a boon, what other razors have you seen with non-typical pins?
