    Default 8/8 E E Schaaf Solingen in rosewood scales

    Before:


    After:







    Nothing wrong with the original scales, just didn't like them =)
    So I've made some new scales out of Honduras rosewood and gave them a CA finish. Sanded and polished the blade also. Wedge is bone, washers are stainless and rod is nickelsilver.

    E E SCHAAF 1914 - 1926


    Greetz!

    Beautiful work! Congratulations. The shot directly at the nose of the razor makes look like a bellied hollow.

    Nice job!

    I'm usually not a big fan of wooden scales, but those are real good looking
