    Default Sheffield Kropp Restore

    This ones for Bechet45 from over on the shaving room in the UK, the blade was in fairly good order still needed taking to the buffer and polisher, but it did hone up really well, the scales were badly twisted i couldn't do anything with them, so in the bin they went, so i had one small piece of Ebony so that's what i was going to use along with a high gloss acrylic wedge, decided before i statred working on this razor that i was going to go down the contemporary road, so a angular shaped scales with nickel silver pins and stainless steel washers, well i was very pleased with the final result, now the photo's.

    Jamie.

    You should be pleased, it came up a treat Jamie. The workmanship is your usual high standard.
    That wedge looks nice and tight, well done.

    Thats nice! I feel Kropps are very underrated at times. They shave with the best! Back in service!
