Hey all, wanted to say thanks. I figured some of you missed this because the main picture showed it closed not open. I didn't post cause I know how you vultures are. I think I got a pretty good deal. I'm guessing it's running about 10/8
JOSEPH RODGERS & SONS CUTLERS TO THEIR MAJESTIES RAZOR - eBay (item 270343399412 end time Feb-14-09 13:39:17 PST)
Congrats, I didn't go that high because it looks like a full hollow. I could be wrong tough. Either way, it's a nice big razor that should clean up well. :)
Half hollow. Nice grab! :y

That is going to shave soooooo good!
HOLY.....................!!!!
One swipe with that and you're BBS for sure!:tu
Or missing an ear!:rofl2:
Nice grab!!!!
congrats, you were looking for a big one for a while, i believe.
i considered it as a replacement for a w&b, as i like rodgers, but i'm not a wide blades fan.
glad it's got a good home :)
Thanks guys. I had been looking for one, in my price range. I think this is going to help me hold off on any new ones for a while. :)
I shaved with my 7/8 wedge today, the weight just makes it so nice, just keep it angled right and guide it, the weight does all the work. I can't wait to try this. I can't really tell from the pics, but am guessing it is running 10/8. HA!
now to sneak it past the wife..eek!

That's huge! :eek: It'll look absolutely phenomenal when you've got it cleaned up.
I was eyeballing that one. I'm the one who asked the seller how long the blade was overall. Looks like it will make a great shaver. Congrats !:tu
Congratulations! That look like a good one.:gl:
I'm anxiously waiting for the mail to get here to see just what I'm into. this is going to be my last razor for a while probably. just found out it looks like my guns will be returning home, which means I have to start funneling money that way to finish a couple projects.

Red, you should dress it in some see-through scales so the enormous blade is always visible! :)
What a great catch! :tu
Yeah, I'm not sure what to put it in, very difficult decision. I really LOVE the way those blonde horn scales on the Wacker blades look on classicshaving (is that where the wacker's are sold?) the lighter color with some streaking in them. but to my knowledge nobody really knows where to source the material from. I already have one fancy tortoise one, can't relaly do that again. I'm not sure man, it's gonna take some careful consideration. it's almost as bad as trying to pick out my next tattoo.

Nice razor Red. You could repair the original scales. Just need the right epoxy.Quote:

See Thorny, we're on the same page!
You guys really missed out on this one :D it goes a full 10/8 to 19/16. width is 5/16 and it's in great shape overall. very little hone wear, I mean really really little. just playing around it did shave the back of my hand. scales are too far gone, splitting in places. but it's okay, Max is expecting it ;)
so please by my razors for sale. only way I can get away with this is to respend money I've already spent. ;) if you think my prices are unfair let me know. seems like a buyers market right now, some great deals in classifieds.
