11/16 French Razor Le Hyalin

Picked this razor up for $3.00 Blade only .Original owner could not hone it to a shave ready edge .

Razor was made by P. Fritiss in Paris . Blade is marked Veritas .Box is marked Le Hyalin

Took over an hour to set bevel using 1 K Sharpton Glass .Progressed with Sharpton Glass up to 8 K.
Switched to my J-Nat to Finish the edge .This was some very hard French steel .

For scales I selected a used pair of horn .If I like this razor I may put some fancy new scales on her .But she has to earn a new pair of shoes .Plan on shaving with her in the morning .Still have to shape and polish the scales .
