Philadelph Status: The Razor Whisperer Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: Rhode Island Posts: 1,421 Thanks: 82 Thanked 108 Times in 72 Posts	Frederick Reynolds with Paua/Acrylic Scales Here is my Frederick Reynolds in Paua scales. This isn't 100% Paua though, it is an acrylic backing, thin Paua veneer (real shell) then another clear acrylic layer on top. I got it as a sample and wanted to see if I liked it better than the 100% real Paua. I don't. It looks great and has good depth, but there's something about a full slab of shell that can't be matched. Anyway, tapered G10 spacer et al. This one will probably be for sale. Any interested parties? Boosh! Attached Images __________________ To be added to my Razors For Sale Email List please read the instructions HERE! Thanks! Sorry, I'm not taking on any more "projects". That means no scales, restoration, honing, you name it. Look for my custom razors in the future though! -Alex

Then this guy is going to offer to bet you that he can make the jack of spades jump out of this brand-new deck of cards and squirt cider in your ear. But, son, do not accept this bet, because as sure as you stand there, you're going to wind up with an ear full of cider.

xChris Status: Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2005 Posts: 618 Thanks: 7 Thanked 13 Times in 13 Posts	Yeah, the material looks good, but I'll take your word on the "feel" difference; I don't have shell scales (yet ) on any of my razors. The shape is unorthodox, though. Not sure if I'd like them. WHat do they look like in an actual grip? What's the balance like? __________________ Chris
