    Default Joseph Rodgers 9/8 'Dutch Rattler'

    Finished this a couple of weeks ago. Lovely razor! Made the scales from blonde buffalo horn, wedge from camel bone, and with nickel silver pins.

    Oh yes! A real nice job. Thanks for leaving the character and patina alone.
    Like it, a LOT!

    Very impressive razor and restoration.

    Any chance you saved a "before" picture?

    And I'm with sharpton on preserving the patina...

    Well done!

    Generous comments gentleman, many thanks!

    Thankfully it wasn't in too bad a condition - so I just used micro-mesh from 2400 grit through to 12000. Then buffed with emery compound, and finally white jewelers rouge.

    Dutch Rattler? I might just have found a "grail" razor to hunt for. This one is lovely.
