    Default Marsh Brothers & Co.

    A pre-1890 13/16+ Marsh Brothers & Co. smiling near wedge. Likely dates 1850's - 1860's. Restored in a glazed finish. A faint crown VR sovereign mark. Beautiful original honey horn scales show some delamination but are in excellent condition. Brass pins and collars. The in process pictures are off the 600 grit belt and the bevel set on a 1K hone.
    This razor was sold to a customer in Russia and deemed a restricted item by eBay Global Shipping. I was allowed to keep the sale money and the customer received a refund. It then showed up for sale on eBay by another vendor using my description and pictures. It was again purchased by the original customer and shipped to Russia. Go figure.

    Such a beautiful restoration. So excellent and such attention to detail. Looks as fresh as the day it left the factory in Sheffield.

    Just beautiful!

    Last week I asked Koraat to send me a blade from Austria to Belgium with UPS but UPS refused saying they don't handle 'dangerous goods.'
