Pipe(???) razor?
Can anyone tell me what this razor is? And if it's worth working on for a long time?
This is the blade that me and my fiancé worked on a while ago. We got all the pitting
out but now I have to make all the dents dissapear. I honed it up and shaved with it
this morning. Not the best shave ever. It'll need some more work although it's hairpopping
sharp it seems.

Looks like you may be able to make a shaver out of it.

I believe I have. However, you'll need someone more knowlegeable than me to confirm the collector's value for this one.

I believe that the pipe is the trade mark of George Wolstenholm, Sheffield England.
Someone will chime in with more info.
Regard,

I can't quite see in the small pics, but I think that is true.

I've got one, and Wolstenholm's what I've been told. I don't know about Sheffield, though. Mines my go-to razor right next to the Puma one of you kind souls gave me. Originally Posted by Library Guy
