    Default my meat cleaver has a smaller bevel then ...

    Greaves !! a shame to see such a thing , !! prob shave ready straight off the Escher grinder
    looks like some heat damage as well on opposite side of the stamp by the toe of this "shorty"
    I think it was listed once before as a "RARE " find as not to many razors are of this length !!
    but hey !! " would look great restored"

    Would love to be able to rewind time to see how various things happen with these razors... Just got done with a restore on a Cranford that had a hawkbill 1/4" past center on the toe... One of those, hmmmm, moments for sure!!

    There is nothing wrong with that blade that a blade stretcher won't fix................

    and I quote.... The cutting edge is 2 inches long, the width is 3/4 and the thinkness is 1/4

    perhaps if it goes back to school, its think ness will grow?

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
