Thread: Finding scales?

Hi,

I would like some new scales for my newly acquired ERN razor.

http://straightrazorpalace.com/razors/75107-ern-razor.html

It is a 6/8 full hollow ground by what I can tell.

I am not sure if SRP allows website links to retailers but if they do not please let me know.

But I was wondering where I could purchase some semi-custom off the shelf scales from including pins etc, which I can attempt to fit myself.

Nothing too cheap and nothing too flashy either. Ebony, G10 perhaps but I just would like a bit better (if possible) than plastic or acrylic unless they are of a higher quality.

Actually I have seen razors with black slim G10 scales with colored end pieces (forgive not knowing their true name) that the pinning goes through that look quite striking.

I just can’t find much at all on the web, any clues?

Thanks.

Being as your in NZ I would reccomend you get hold of either Oz/Onimaru54 or Grant/Baldy right here on SRP as they both can either build them for you, or point you in the right direction... as they are also "Down Under"
