My Collection for the Butcher Shop
1st razor has an 8/8 Blade with the original bulleye brass collars. The scales are a black horn. This razor is up there with my best shavers.
2nd razor has a 5/8 blade and the scales are picked bone.
3rd razor has a 9/16 blade and what is unusual about this is that it has an "improved tang" which is actually longer than a normal tang.
4th razor has a 5/8 blade and the scales are polished Giraffe bone and were made by Robert Williams. The escutcheon plate is hammered brass.
5th razor has a 6/8 blade and the scales are believed to be of Tortoise (dark brown molted or spotted over a goldish color) The scales also have three silver inlays.
6th razor is identical to razor #1 but not nearly as nice. The collars don't match and there is a crack near the heal of the blade which is about 3/4" long.
7th razor has a 6/8 blade. The scales are made of ivory and possibly the tang. I have not tested the tang.if anything has been abnormal for a long enough period it then becomes normal.
