Frederick Reynolds FBU French Point
Just got this back from Glen. He was able to mostly just clean it from what I can tell as the finish on the blade looks original still. There were a few spots of rust and pitting you can’t even tell were there. Scales are original and were in really good shape when I found it. Any ways now, for your viewing pleasure:

Dang! That's a beauty!
I don't think I've ever seen a Freddy FBU that nice. And a French point, one of my favorites.“You must unlearn what you have learned.”

I’m hoping my boy takes an interest in straights and wet shaving so someday it and a few other things will become his.

Can’t get my son interested in straight razor shaving. He’s 45 now, so not likely to happen.

Neat! I have seemingly the same model but in a small size.

Very nice razor. I am probably part of a minority on this issue, but I like the way it looked originally better. A little bit of patina gave it more character.
