DAMN!!!...just...DAMN!!!
Such an impressive restoration. Karl restored my very similar Marsden a year or so ago. It is an awesome razor to shave with.

That's just a beautiful old chopper, Karl-I really like the angular/squarish aspect to it in contrast to the usual rounded/curvy Sheffields. And I'm just in awe of your glazed surfaces!
Oh, wow. That pin system is weird and cool!
I’ve got 3 razors that use it, but I’d never taken any of them apart.
Triangulating all the makers, it looks like the venn diagram places them around 1820.

The one in fancy pressed scales uses smaller washers and has been disassembled and lightly reground before I got it, but the other two are original, and all of them use silver washers, plus the pins are smaller than 1/16th and also silver (though the one that’s been repinned is using Ni/Cu at the pivot, presumably because whoever worked on it didn’t have any silver to replace it with).
