This razor has an old Wade & Butcher blade that is 7/8 wide at the widest point and is ready to shave. The scales are Lacewood with five slanted indentations and several coats of sanded and polished CA (cyanoacralate {super glue}) as the finish. The collars are Daisy pins with Brass pins to give the Daisys a yellowish center. The Lacewood scales are lined with brass to give them extra support plus the custom made wedge adds to the overall glamor of this razor. :happy108 :happy108 :happy108
Lookin' good! One thing that I have done with those pin collars is, if you hammer those flat, they look more 'flower-like', or closer to those 'rosette' collars of old. The scales have a great finish, and I like the pattern in that wood!! C utz
Thanks Chris I will try that next time. How have you been? It has been a while since I have seen your name around, well on the SRP.com forum that is. I haven't been foruming (is that a word, well I guess it is now, LOL) much lately so thought that I would come over here and see what is going on.
Hey Bill, I've been good! Good to see you back around too. I usually am in the 'restoration' section trying to learn. When I caught wind of this forum, I was happy to find some of SRP.com's former restoration guru's! I see you have been working on some restorations too! Great work! C utz (some day I'll find the time/energy to work with CA)
