Thanks Phrank!
I've only ever seen one other one like it posted before (yours excluded). I'd love to know more about it. I know it was made sometime between the 1870 and 1891, but other than that I've got nothing.
Right now, the blade measures 15/16". I'm not sure if the years of honing wore it down from a full 8/8 or not. When I found it in the wild it looked like this:
I had Nathan Zowada do the restore for me. We had to chop about 3/16 off the toe to remove the nick, but it's still plenty big. :-) I wasn't sure what direction I wanted to go for the scales other than horn, and but I really like the honey horn he selected. It's got that great, natural material feel, and the semi-translucent look is super sexy when the razor is closed. :-)
