Huh! I don't think I'd ever come across the second pin on the integral-wedge scales. The only razor I'd seen that on was an ancient French one in tortoiseshell, with HUGE decorative collars. I'd also never seen the integral-wedge on flat, beveled scales -- very cool!
I just noticed it appears to have an unusually 'descending' tail, too. Is that just the angle, or does the tail really descend below the level of the scales when it's closed? That's a feature I've only ever seen on razors from the 1840's. But it looks like it could just be a trick of the angle.
For some reason, I really easily forget how varied the lineup of razors Rodgers made was!
And I wasn't complaining about the style of the washers! I'm all for putting it back together the way it was when you found it!-Zak Jarvis. Writer. Artist. Bon vivant.
