Thread: Joseph Rodgers & Son 8/8" For Barbers restoration

Those are two beautifully restored razors, gentlemen!

I have a similar design Greaves roughly 7/8, it is my favorite shaver. Mine has some etching, but I really like your Rodgers and the 8/8 is impressive. I have seen that scalloped spine on some other brands, pretty uncommon but always elegant. Nice razors boys.

Does anyone have information about what this form of spine means? Only decorative function or something else?

I also saw razors from other manufacturers with such a spine, and most of them had the inscription "American razor", can this mean something?

Also saw razors with only one bend, and not with two, or with two bends, but only on one side of the blade.

Stunning razors all

I think the spine is just decorative, and let's be honest it is very handsome.
