George Wostenholm & Sons 13/16 Spanish Point, Honey Horn Scales, Shave Ready
Well, the time I knew was coming has finally arrived - my neuropathy has degenerated to the point that I can no longer use straight razors. Therefore, I will be listing my remaining straights, stones, and strops over the next several days.
Offering an exceptional 13/16 George Wostenholm & Sons Spanish point near wedge, in translucent honey horn scales and lead wedge. This razor was purchased new from Karl Johnson (Karlej) and was restored by him, the purchase price was $170.00. I have replaced the plain domed washers he used with decorative brass washers and nickel silver pins.
The razor is freshly honed on Japanese natural stones: sharpening and pre-finishing on a Shinden Hon Suita using a full Asano Mikawa Shiro Nagura progression (Botan, Tenjyou, Mejiro, Koma), and final finishing on a Nakayama Asagi Tomae with Tomo Nagura slurry and then plain water. Honing was done with a single layer of .007" tape.
Asking $135.00 with free shipping via Priority Mail to the continental United States; APO, FPO, and international addresses will be shipped at cost. If you are interested, post your claim here as per the rules and send me a PM. Questions are welcome, and thanks to SRP for offering this service to members!
