    Default B. J. Eyre & Co. Late W. Greaves & Sons Sheffield

    Snagged this beauty from ebay back in January. I lightly hand sanded but left a lot of pitting. The horn scales were bug eaten and one was broken. So I replaced them with bone scales, lexan wedge, added internal bearing washers with washer less pinning.

    After honing it was only 13/16, but shaves very nicely. The balance came out very well, but I had trouble getting it to balance for the photo.
