    Default Joseph Allen and sons 5/8 Barber's Notch wedge in pretty decent condition not restore

    Hi guys, I've got this up on flea bay at the moment, I just really need to get rid of some razors and this one is probably one of the best shaves I've gotten so far, honed by Jimbo and I've shaved once with it. I really like it but I have about 40 razors left and I promised my gf I was going to sell off a couple of razors before I bought any new ones.
    PS. To Jimbo Thanks again for honing this and the blue wonder, I certainly will be keeping the blue wonder for long while more but this one I just gotta let it go and I figured it'd be easier to sell shave ready. And I don't consider the razors that I've honed myself as shave-ready but more shave-able.

    EDIT: I just realised the etch on the blade says medium size hollow ground, but when I look at the blade head-on it looks practically wedge to me. 1/4 hollow i guess?

    If this is not the right place for me to post this mods please let me know.

    Saitou-San, This looks like a really nice straight, especially for a newbie like me !!
    Wish my RAD budget wasn't already tapped out this month

    Hey Bongo, that's fine there's always bargains to be found on the bay and in antique stores etc. once you know how to look. =]
    My RAD Budget has gone far over-budget lol hence the selling. And don't get me started on the HAD, I think I'm starting to get a case of the SAD (stropAD)
