Thread: a few new old ones.

i generally dont make a thread every time i finish a razor, so i'll just put the recent few in this one.

the joseph rodgers 'norfolk razor' 5/8 near wedge
the only one that isnt honed yet, i'm optimistic that it will shave well.
it was rust town when i got it, but i didnt go crazy with the sanding because i didnt want to lose the nice lines of the razor.


the joseph rodgers 'perfection' razor in horn. this one rescaled by val at the gentlemen's den.


the gotta hamburg ring. its a pretty fine shaver.


the henckels 81 emperor 4/8
very comfortable and very handsome

They all look great.
Really like the scales on the Perfection...

Thank you for that! A very handsome restore on the Rodgers.

I'm always tempted to rip it down to a mirror finish, but I had to restrain myself

Here's a couple better shots

Very nice! I appreciate your decision to honour the integrity and character of the razor. A good vintage should look and play the part! Well done.
