Rodgers Double Thumb Notch

.

Hi all,

This will be the second str8 of that shape coming into my hands.

The first has already been showed here:

Undefined Concave Razor, presumed to be an early Elliot.

Now, The Rodgers


Hardly visible on the tang: Rodger.., Sheffield

The smiling blade 11/16, wedge type, was very well preserved.
So were the scales of pressed horn. Lead wedge, brass pins.

Feel free to look at the pictures.

Beautiful razor. I was also wondering if that stone is good for honing a razor? I have just about the same exact one.

Of course it is. It's a old combo Coticule + BBW. A bit narrow (30 mm), but helpful with smiling edges.
