Joseph Rodgers In Hunters Orange
I wanted to take this one all the way to mirror, but realized there was no way to remove all the pitting around the makers mark. So, I left areas of pitting around the blade. I wanted to make it look nice, but didn't want to get rid of all of the age marks.
The scales are hunter orange G10. Wedge is ivory micarta. Pins and washers are stainless. I'm going to have to re-pin it to get a better finish on the pins.
I was wondering how honing was going to go, since it looks very wedgy, but it was hollow enough that it only took about 30 minutes. Probably the easiest razor I've honed so far.

Yet another great restore...I love the polish on that blade
. Too bad that the etching on the shank has faded a bit though
