This is a J Elliot Barbers use 10/8 quarter hollow.I reconditioned the blade ,and put it's old scales back(it is blemish/defect free,as new).I think I will make some colored scales for it,and then sell it.It has never been honed.It has a high polished finish(not mirror).I can put a mirror on it ,but I think these bigger blades look better with a little less shine.Best Regards gary
Now THAT'S a Razor!!!!
Well done, as usual, Gary.

Very nice! Very, very nice!!!
WOW Gary!!! Again that is beautiful. The finish you get on those razors is simply awesome. Now I feel RAD setting in for that BIG cleaver. I could sahve each side of my face with a pass each. MMMMMM dreaming here.........:tu
Shave with it in the summer,let your beard grow in the winter,ans use it to split your firewood,it is really heavy ,it measures 0.320 across the spine
A friend of the family told me that his father caught him whittling with his straight, which my friend was not supposed to touch. Didn't say exactly what happened, but that thatwas the last time he ever did that.Our friend is 75 or 76 now.Quote:
