Sorry, no.
I'm a bad photographer, but take a look here:
2008 B&B Le Grelot 6/8 - a set on Flickr
One scale is as it should be, the other is bent, like it is in tension or something. (I was told by Joel that I should expect things like this.. after he have been talked so much good about it.. well.. after all, he said that he could talk to TI to check if they could do something with it, but whataheck.. )
On this it shows good how it is:

The "spacer" also looks like it is made after the scales, and to thin compared to the width of the blade. I'm not sure what the wedge was made of, but it looks like it is melted plastic that is formed after the gap between the scales.
And the pivot pin was strange, the scales did not align at the pivot, they was moving when opening and closing the razor.
If that was not it.. I ordered it shave ready, yeah, right, dull as hell, I even could see the gritmarks in the bevel, to bad I did not take a picture of it then. I did the recomended 100 laps on strop etc, but no-go, the bevel polished nice though, but still dull.
After paying like $420 for an razor, (it was kinda steep because of shipping, taxes, customs etc), then I was expecting something little better than this.
Now Buddel have fullfilled(?) that
