I just finished this nice Top Flight for a member and decided to share a few pics.
The blade has no hone wear, I did polish it to very high mirror, the bluing I left as is since it was in a great condition.
The scales are bubinga, died in red and sealed with poly. Brass pins with stainless - brass washer stack.
Thanks for looking

Very clean, awesome pins! Great work!
Beautiful job,I like the tiger stripes in the scales, great job on the wedge with the light color .
I have a Top Flight, good shaver.
Very nice! I'm sure that the member will not only love the scales, and polish on the blade but also one of those killer edges that you do! (I know from experience):rock:
WoW! I love my Burrell Top Flight, mine was my first straight. What's the wings logo like on this one? Mines good but it's unevenly stamped. As you say, nice bluing too. I had a tiny bit of rust on mine and stupidly rubbed too hard to get it off and damaged some of the bluing...
Thanks for sharing, I don't see a whole lot of these around here; maybe no-one wants them, but mine is one of my nicest razors, a GREAT sounding razor with the full hollow and all!

Excellent work, she looks great :tu
What a nice save Stefan. Everything is balanced and the main players compliment one another. Beatiful.
Nice work, i do like the Bubinga, i have a nice piece of Bubinga that's ready to rock & roll when the mood takes me maybe tommorow.

Fantastic work Stefan.
Have always wondered if the top flights were Military,Blade is long gone but I do have the box.

I have one, but there isn't a ton of info available. Great rescue of a great shaving blade!
