Charles Pitts

[JOB15]

This razor came with scales showing the name James Tidmarsh and bearing the Cannon / Defiance logo known to me from Abram Brooksbank .

The scales were therefore a later addition and the Logo came originally and slightly different from Charles Pitts.
Charles & John Pitts were brother and the sons of John Pitts.

The razor dates sometime around 1845.

Fittingly this razor had many pits. I removed quite a bit but was mainly focused on having a nice bevel and not pit removal.

The scales were taken from my box of extras and a crack was fixed. The blade I gave a mirror finish. The shave was not bad but I will re visit this one next week hoping for an improvement.

There is a lack of final photos but my latest shave video shows the razor close up.

Many Thanks
Joseph
