That's a real gem Michaelshane. I'll bet it shaves like nobody's business too.

Thanked: 44This is a GB Anchor brand razor - not exactly sure who that maker is, but its a super cool 9/8" bellied hollow in blue spalted hackberry, preceded by an 8/8 George Savage in burled maple. Fibers and oil on blade, forgot to wipe it all clean lol.

Not so pretty but it must have been well loved!
James Codfer. I have found no information on him. It has jimps on the thumb side of the tang. Rescale is ~pine with copper horse leather rivets. My guess is 1860-1890. I would love to know its story! She shaves very well and has held a good edge for a couple years.

My fully restored Taylor's 3000, now I have personally restore many 1000 models but this will be my first 3000 these were some of the very last Taylor's to be made, with a slightly shorter blade longer tail and tang than most vintage straight razors they tried to make a better balanced razor, well It certainly feels very well balanced when using the razor shaves like a dream as well, this information was given to me by a TSR UK forum member old blade grinder who worked for Taylor's back in the day. The razors a French point 13/16
