    Default Wosty 3/4 celebrated

    Last one for the weekend.... The rest of my time will be spent restoring two blades and sewing up some razor socks...


    This one went easy.... Wanted thinner scales than my normal stuff but wanted a modern look for these wonderful shavers

    Blade on this one was a rust bucket and was able to save the engraving... Some of the pitting was as deep as the engraving so I couldn't get to it... It's an ixl celebrated


    Rescaled in translucent horn and brass hardware

    I almost wrote, "That's $#@#$%%$$# AWESOME!"

    So I'll settle for, that is truly a grand restore you've done, superb work!

    Those Wosty's are some nice looking blades!

    Turned out great brother.
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    I won an eBay auction for a very similar looking wosty today, and I looked at it and looked, and thought I had seen it before, so I did a search... Turns out this exact razor should be on it's way to me shortly! Can't wait!
