    This one is headed to England. It's a shame this NOS Puma had celluloid tortoise scales that were toast. I mined the Puma logo and put them on the dyed burl you see here. I put a 2MM CZ in the spacer, a glass bead for a third pin, a CA finish on the scales, then flopped in a set of titanium liners that I processed to a nice blue hue. Titanium makes the razor a tad heavier, but a razor this size can comfortably wear the extra weight.

    I think this one is my favorite of the four I've seen you posted today, Bill.

    If you make me take up straights, I will hurt you, Bill!

    Beautiful work! The burl scales are really a great replacement to the original celluloid tortoise.
