    Default Joseph Rodgers & Sons

    This is a 6/8 Joseph Rodgers & Sons Hollow Grind W/ Barbers Notch. The razor it self was a full restoration. The blade was cleaned and polished and honed to perfection, what an excellent shaver. It has a Bright finish on the blade. The scales are Black Canvas Micarta, hand shaped and hand polished to a glossy finish. The wedge is hand shaped, bright polished aluminum. To complete the assembly, hand peaned nickel silver pins with hand domed silver tone washers to secure the blade and the scales

    Great looking razor! I like the wedge and dome washers especially! I did an aluminum wedge once, and man is it different than working with wood or g10 like I was used to.

    Really nice looking razor. Like others, I love the spacer. I'd also like to see the before pic if it's available. Great job neighbor.

    Simply stunning - the aluminum wedge is an excellent touch.

    Nice job. I would only point out that when 'before' and after photos are posted it makes it that much more impressive.

    Thanks for all the kind words, I didn't take any before pictures. Maybe next time. I have a few in the works. I just need to hone my photography skills a some. I'm just not pleased with the quality of my pictures. I find it very frustrating.
