    Default 8/8 W&B Celebrated, For Barber's Use.

    I had the opportunity and honour to work on this razor, and it was loads of fun. This is for our member danielghofrani from Waterloo. It's an 8/8 Celebrated "For Barber's Use". The scales are feathered horn, with a bone wedge. Hardware is brass, and he made the request for a microfastener in the pin (for easy maintenance).

    The razor came in pretty good condition, but the scales were ill fit. I buffed this one for a long time, but I think it paid off. I'm really happy with the results, and I hope Dan gives it a good home.

    Thanks for looking!
