    Default William Ryal stubtail in G10

    I have for sale and William Ryals stubtail razor that measures approximately 5/8" at the widest point. I probably have the original scales and can include them if you like. I rescaled with G10 (darkened some with dye) copying the original scales and used the original metal wedge. Pinned with micro fasteners.
    Blade was cleaned and polished by Glen of Gemstar Customs (gssixgun if you're a newer member). Blade is not shave ready.
    Asking $90 shipped CONUS or best offer. Trying to fund a better honing set-up. Any questions please let me know!

    Now that's an old blade, probably from the 1700's..............?

    Honestly I don't know the age. It has an interesting diamond shape grind when you look at it from the toe. I would kind of like to keep it, but I really want a better set of waterstones to work with.

    If I can find the original scales I'll post a picture of them. They have a few different colors in them.

    Here are the original scales. Also, I forgot that the new scales might be micarta instead of G10. I made the scales a couple of years ago.
