Personally, with that razor and the original scales, I'd say... No pin. I like the original set up! LOL!
As for custom scales, 2 versus 3 pin is really your call, your preferance (Blonds versus brunetts). Although, larger blades might need that middle support, up to about 6/8, it's really not necessary for the middle pin (unless the material is flimsy).
With that said, I prefer the 3 pin look..........

9 times out of 10 I think 3 pins is classier than two and more stable as well.

I'd say to base it on the length of the blade and how much work you did around the pivot pin. If you had to remove lots of rust, that may create closing issues without having the spacer to separate the scales a bit more.
