Rescaled 6/8" W&B Rattle Back

Picked this bad boy up (blade only) for a steal a couple weeks ago and finally got around to making a set of scales for it. The scale material is Wenge and the wedge is made from some oak scrap I had lying around. I finished it with a couple coats of Shellac and then buffed it a bit to give is a slight sheen. I didn't fill in the grain as you can see, but it didn't really bother me as it shows the character of the wood. I'm still having issues with pining the razor and getting it set correctly, but this is only my second set of scales I have ever made. I have a lot more to learn, and a long way to go. :001_smile

Still working on getting the bevel set and honed. It's being a stubborn bugger and am hoping to get it completely shave ready soon.
