    Very nice! Those are bone scales right? Or are they just imitation?

    I'm not 100% but I think they are ivory. I found other Heiffer razors online that look to be the same and they are ivory with a lead wedge same as this one.

    Thanks everyone.

    You know I wasn't going for quite that much shine but no matter what grit I got to I could see sanding marks and just couldn't stop. Unfortunately after hitting it with the Maas I could see where I moved up to soon at one point. But like I said I wasn't going for perfection in the first place, maybe next time lol.
