    Default Shumate lovers - 11/16 Shumate razor co. , Austin Tex.

    Manufactured 1900 to 1904 when the company moved to St. Louis. Back of blade slight hollow with a square point and double shoulder. Blade measures approximately 3 x 11/16. On shank “SHUMATE RAZOR - CO. - AUSTIN, TEX”. Blade cleaned, polished and honed shave ready. Jimp’s bottom of shank. Some plating missing from shank. Very small spot of pitting on both sides of blade near tip. Minimal hone wear. Hard rubber scales cleaned and polished with new brass pins and 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 disinfection. 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. If razor gives a close comfortable shave I call it shave ready. If it does not shave right I re-hone the razor.

    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.

    $43.00
