    Default Prussian Military Razor

    J&R Dodge Sheffield 6/8 wedge. I don't see many by this maker. Thought I'd share. I'm attracted to razors with military references and could not pass this one up. My first purple scales. The original finish on the blade was pretty course. This is my attempt to reproduce that finish. The scales are dyed horn. A little warped but pretty much all there. There are some numbers scratched into the scales which I left. I'm not sure if this was really a military issue and they represent a payroll number or some other issuing mark. At any rate they are part of the history of the razor. I'm pleased I was able to even out the bevel. It's just set with a 1K in the photos.
