7/8 Greaves Wedge in Translucent Horn

Hi guys!

Have finally finished a couple of personal project razors recently after a bit of a hiatus from restore work, so would like to share them with you!

First up is an awesome 7/8 Greaves, a very very heavy razor that I lightly buffed to a high shine and rescaled in beautiful translucent horn modelled after the originals. I had the scales ready to go a while ago but damaged one trying to transplant the escutcheon from the originals. After remaking it I decided to leave the escutcheon out for now. The blade still wears its fair share of pits, as I decided against grinding or sanding too deep. Why rob her of all her age spots I say. Pins are 1/16 brass rod, washers are domed brass. Wedge is matching horn.

Yet to hone but very pleased with the classic look.

Thanks for your time! EF.

Very Classy, I really like how the lines of the razor and scales meld together.

A very nice Greaves. I love the scales.

I was lucky enough to find a greaves wedge, and it's the only wedge that I'm able to shave with. There's just something about it that feels smoother and softer than some of the others.

Great job!

Very nice.....

Wow! You HAVE been busy! This one is awesome! A proper tribute to a super fine blade! Kudos on the seemingly perfect job!:rock:

Excellent work, both on the Greaves, scales and peening. Keep up the good work. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice! And great job on the pinning :)

Sweeeeeet scales, and the polish is perfection.... (not jealous, not jealous) :)

Onto an evil looking stub tail greaves for me now... Watch this space!

EF,
Congratulations on a job well done :bow. I love this blade. I don't know what it is about her, but she just appeals to me. Very well done :tu

The color on those scales looks so warm and inviting. I'm quickly becoming a fan of that horn coloring. Excellent work on that razor btw.
