Frederick Reynolds 11/16 natural scales
Manufactured from 1840-1892. Back of blade almost straight with Barber notch tip and single shoulder. Blade measures approximately 3 x 11/16. On blade “THE CELEBRATED - HOLLOW GROUND RAZOR”. On the shank “F.R. - FREDERICK REYNOLDS - SHEFFIELD - ENGLAND”. Light spots of pitting. Blade cleaned, polished and honed shave ready. Scales are natural material. I did the hot pin test and they did not burn. They are either bone or ivory. I think bone but you be the judge. Scales very thin with slight warp. Pins do have washers.
Light coat of oil for protection on blade. Please look at photos as they are best description.
Honing: One layer of electrical tape on spine. Bevel set on 600 grit diamond hone. Then 6000 water stone and finished on 12,000 oil stone, then glass plate. Then stropped on canvas with diamond paste and then leather and disinfected. A $18.00 VALUE FREE
I personally test shave each razor before final disinfecting. Shave ready is different to each person. Factors like light or coarse beard or beard length come into play. I have a heavy beard and test shave every razor on a two day growth before disinfecting. If razor gives a close comfortable shave I call it shave ready. If it does not shave right I rehone the razor. I hone razors as a sideline and have only had praise on the sharpness of the razors. Check my feedback and you will see how many customers were satisfied with shave ready.
Payment due in three days.
U.S. SALES ONLY! Free USPS First Class shipping. If you want to buy the razor PM with shipping address, email and phone. I will PM back with PayPal email address. Will ship when payment received. Will email you tracking number, and my phone number.
Thank you.
