Holy Hannah!
You are a "machine"!!!! How many projects have you turned out in the last 3 months?
Keep up the great job!!!
I might have to send you some of my stuff..... You do outstanding work!

I agree.... I haven't seen another that looks like it.
I'm sure some people have some similar to it out there.

Thanks!

In time I'll clean the scales up. Give them a light sanding and a buff.

Only 2 pics will load...... Will try again later.

Thanks guys!
I love the old Sheffield razors.....
In time I will unpin it and do more of a clean up on it.

I did the sanding on this M.Cutler Son & Chambers Straight Razor in a few hours. About as shiny as I want it. Not going to buff it either. I still need to take the blade off the scales and do clean...

Amen brother!

In time I'll shop around for a decent supplier.
Freight and quality are a big factor......
Almost forgot a big factor too...... $ MONEY $!

Actually with shipping and all.... about the same price as the ones I posted......

Still ain't cheap tho.

Holy Hannah!!! those aren't cheap......

I have bought a few tiems from this vendor in the past..... Whatcha think?
2 Gold Color Light Brown Genuine Horn Scales 160x45x4mm Horn Knife Razor Scales...

I need to look into getting horn blanks. Ebay has a few vendors who sell them.... Most likely at an inflated price.
Seems that the "honey" horn is somewhat hard to come by for some reason. You do...

I love those scales! I can't wait until I make some of my own.

I agree...... You never know what lurks underneath all the crud on a blade...... I might just polish it up..... And use it as a display piece some time down the road. I got lots other blades to work...

I was working on a Colley & Co. Razor...... Sanding it down..... Then noticed it has a crack near the toe........ GRRRRRRRR!
Not too worried about it...... Bought in a razor lot. Would have been a...

Looks like you are going to have some fun with that one...... :)

Thanks for showing the flower collar, Jim. I'll have to keep an eye peeled for some of those. I need brass ones.

Ummmm..... I pretty much live in the middle of nowhere, Geezer. Not many craft...

Hmmmm.... I don't think we have Hobby Lobby" store here in Canada.... I have a razor that needs just one flower.... And eBay doesn't have the exact match and yours were pretty darn close!

Very nice! So you made those flower collars? Hmmmm..... I need a few brass ones for one of my razors. Not having any luck finding a good match...... Again great job on that razor!

Those scales look awesome! I'd put those on one of my own razors.

One day..... I hope to make my own scales. GREAT JOB!

Taking pre-orders wouldn't be a bad idea...... I know not that wouldn't be a lot of people needing these but the ones who did..... Well supply vs. demand....;)

I'm sure who ever makes them.... They would have the market on them......

All that makes sense......

I just put it on the 1K Naniwa Proessional stone...... Set the bevel...... And no rust chips in the blade.... Pure and shiny!
I am thinking I will send it out to be professionally hones still........

That makes sense...... I can do that..... I'll give it a good look on the loupe too.
Thanks for that advise...... :)

I really want to remove it from the scales....BUT..... I don't want to damage the flower brass washers...... And one of the washer is pretty bad already.... Oxidized away..... (pretty much gone in...
