    I've just been reading the JE timeline. I wasn't expecting the company to have been making razors all the way back to 1795.... It's a lot older than I expected. And looking at the shape of it I don't think it's a late production model either. I'm thinking 1850 ish would seem right for the shape. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    I'll give the scales a thorough look over before I decide to do anything with them. I was fully expecting them to be celluloid or rubber, But I think the razor predates both materials. It gives me a lot of hope for the scales.

    The more I look at it, the more I think I might have a project I simply shouldn't attempt for fear of ruining it.

    I'm going to have to tread carefully with this one!
