    Default Unknown Sheffield in Cocobolo

    This is a nice 6/8 half hollow Sheffield blade. The tang is worn but reads "Jo" something "& Sons". Could be a few different names. Re-scaled in Cocobolo finished with CA. Wedge is brass. I haven't completely mastered wedge making yet but I like the thinner scales and the color & finish came out great.

    Nice Job.
    I'm sure your Joseph (insert name here) razor will be a great shaver

    Could it be Allen, as in Joseph Allen & Sons?
