    Default Joseph Rodgers, ivory scales

    Hi gentlemen,

    Today i will show you an other razor i restore.

    It's a Joseph rodgers & sons, late 1800 era.

    The blade is in "silversteel", shoulderless, 13/16, near wedge.

    Scales are in old ivory (elephant) ; wedge is in lead.

    Again, i don't have "before" pisctures, because i started the work just when i received it !!

    Now, it's the "wednesday" razor of a customer...

    Nice job. I used to have one of those but that one looks in much better condition.
