    Default Rhodes & Champion restore

    I recently picked up this Rhodes & Champion in a lot. It came to me reground, so I cleaned any oxidation off and polished everything up. It should date to around 1810 +/- I think.

    By looking at the shape of the blade, tang and monkey tail could be from the late 1700's maybe? Fantastic job and great looking razor.
