Thread: R. Hibberd 8/8 wedge in blond horn

Hi,

Does that scale material require sealing or anything? how does one maintain it? - Looking into buying some.

Thanks!

I just sanded the horn and polished it on my buffing wheel. It does not have any type of sealant or anything. So far, so good.

I think the the most common problems people encounter with horn are warping and horn beetles (carpet beetles).

By the way, this blade has turned out to be an excellent shaver.

I like it!

Thanks for the pic's. Great work on that.

That's one hunk of steel! I love those horn scales.

Looks great, nice job!

Beautiful job!!! What type of washers did you use and where did you get them?

Brando, they are stainless steel washers from Small Parts. I don't remember exactly which size I used.

Nice job! Being a good shaver is a +++!
