WM Jackson & Co

Got this one back in July, but have been too busy to finish it up until now.

It's a 8/8 + WM Jackson & Co, Sheffield near wedge. It had some bad pitting by the edge so I had to take down about 1/8 to find clean steel, but it's still about 15/16 of blade left :)

As you can see in the before picture it got some nice etching on the blade that I wanted to keep, so I decided to not use greaseless and rather live with some pitting. Buffed the blade from black to rouge and managed to keep the etching although it's not as visible as it was before.

Scales are made of feathered horn with a bone wedge, pinned with brass and brass pivot washers.

Like everyone else, I think the scales are superb and I'm sure that they are far, far better than the pictures convey. The great thing about horn is that it's so tactile that you just can't help but turn the finished razor over in your hands.

Proper job.

Nice finish on that horn Rune! Great looking razor, very classy.

Great save, that is one good looking razor. Well done :tu

Nicely done Rune. The horn looks great. A great looking package overall.
