Thread: 5/8 John Williams Damascus Sheffield Plus Badger Brush w/ Walnut Handle

Well, gotta sell a couple razors as its herd thinning time again:

All original *Extremely Scarce* 5/8 John Williams Sheffield square point with bottom jimps. Blade is very clean & free from stains, has very small amount of very light pitting, centers between yellow celluloid scales with black celluloid wedge, scales do have some light discoloring. Front of tang reads "John Williams Damascus Steel Sheffield". Recently re honed using Coticule, Chinese 12k, stropped with Chrox pasted leather paddle strop & Ferrous Oxide pasted leather paddle strop then finished on SRD poly web & leather strop and is shave ready by my standards, yours may vary.

Please Note: If you are a beginner please let me know and I'll mute the point for you.

My first straight razor was a John Williams, this one was my second one which I've had for 7 years. They are a very good quality razor, IMHO up there with Frederick Reynolds and W&B, are extremely scarce as it took me 6 years to collect 5 of them. John Williams (circa late 1800's to around 1920-30) was the first razor maker to use the postal service to ship their razors to the US.

Brush is new and unused and is a 24mm WD Pure Black Badger Hair knot with Black Walnut handle turned by me. Knot has already been treated with Oxy Clean to help eliminate animal smell common with new brushes.

Price is $85.00 US (via PayPal) for the pair shipped CONUS, for International shipping please PM or email location for shipping cost.

Money back guarantee if not satisfied.

Seems like a nice entry set for someone.

Nice set from a great guy! I bought my first straight from Bruce 5 years ago
