3 coming off the bench Engelswerk, Wostenholm, & Geneva Cutlery
I've had these sitting around in the "to do" pile for a while and this weekend proved to be the time to get them finished up. Sorry for no before pics. Here they are:
Engelswerk in Purpleheart w/ Zebrawood Wedge
Wostenholm Pipe "Superb" in Walnut w/ purpleheart wedge
Geneva Cutlery all original restoration other than new pins and collars
All 3 together
I'm looking forward to the ensuing shaves once the honing is complete. Thanks for letting me share gentlemen!
Cheers!
Glenn

Very nice work, Glenn. All three look like wonderful razors that you've expertly brought back to life!

WOW! Just your blades are sweet! Engleswerk is great and hard to find! A Supberb Pipe? Genevas rock! You have treated them nicely with a fine finish and wonderful scales! Fit and finish seems perfect. I really like them. Not overdone and classy! Way to go!

Very nice lookers. The CA finish on the purpleheart really stands out, but my favourite is the Geneva. It's like fitting into your old Tuxedo. Always makes you feel good!
