Thread: 7/8 Marsh Custom Restore

I haven't done one like this in at least 2 years but one of the guys over at B&B saw the pics of the last one on my website and made the request, so I figured why not...

The Razor:

MARSH BROTHERS & CO
Pond Works, Sheffield until 1852
Navigation Works, Sheffield ca. 1853 - 1920

I am pretty sure this razor was "fixed" at some point in time in the past, two clues were the edge is a touch short...

There was a percussion ripple in the edge... I took most of it out

I think it was dropped and the Barbers Notch was taken off but we'll never know for sure...

I polished it out to a near perfect mirror


The Scales:

The scales are a pattern I used about two years ago and it was requested again, it really shows well with a larger polished blade.. I used some new Black Palm I just got in with a Pearl acrylic wedge.. The pins are NiAg and the washers are a double stack SS and Brass....

Hope you like it Brad...











Oh yes BTW is still balances out to the tang...




I am looking forward to shaving this one in the morning before it heads home...
