1. Another large vintage razor arriving this week: from Sheffield, built in the Washington Works of George Wostenholm & Sons, circa 1848-1880;
    Hollow-notch nose, hollow-ground 7/8" blade; double-shoulder; original black horn scales and stacked brass washers. Rare to find these old Sheffield old razors with the original horn scales intact as usually there are cracks or splits that have developed around the hinge pin, particularly the large-bladed ones. :)

  11. For $8.99 w/ free shipping it was too hard to resist bringing this little bugger home....
    It just miiiiight need a new knot...


    Guess my only two questions are;
    1) What size of a knot it will end up taking, and
    2) If it's an Erskine, Ever Ready...or something else.

  16. Thanks to the enabling of @Darkbulb I pulled the trigger on a nice Russian razor. Nice meaning it's a pretty rare find, not necessarily that it will shave nice. It is a Soviet era razor after all. The Mladost 2 - currently on a goat cart out of
    Get a nice horse knot in there, some polish for the wood and shine up the metal. Great piece!
  17. It shipped this morning....a Russian gem that @Darkbulb helped enable. Should be on a cart behind a goat leaving Bulgaria.
