Before a few days i bought a Frederick Reynolds me too!It is a 7/8 at widest point, the blade is wedge with a custom scale.The seller told me that it was made in 1890's.I bought it for about 210$.
I want to ask you if you have more information about his age or anything else you know.Also if it was a good purchase for the money i spent for it :hmmm:.It was very difficult to find a F.R in a excellent condition like this.
Finally to say I am very proud for having a F.R and his shaving is fantastic!

The big one in the back is a wonderful shaver. Still dialing in the silver steel as it was a 7/8 snaggle tooth when I got it. It's closer to a 6/8 now.
Here's the before I started making it lighter with about halfway through the agony in the lower half pic. :(

Here's my only example of a pure wedge FR. She's the only one I have in the collection too!
It's as wedgie a wedge as ever there was, and a real bear to hone. It was horribly pitted, and still has some remainders that will be there forever. I used it in a SOTD some months back, but you can tell she's obviously a FR. This one happens to have been rescaled in custom micarta.
Add me to the club!! :)

My wedge is OK, but I really like the faux frameback models.

Ain't that the truth. I just got mine shaving great again. After the hones and leather stropping, the first shave was sharp but harsh !! so for the second shave....I stopped it on linen 60 laps and then 125 on leather... She's good now !!!

My humble entry.
It came with an assortment of 12 other razors, I really like the look and feel of it so it will remain preserved untill my restoration skills improve.
