Thread: 13/16 Marsh & Sheperd ???

Manufactured about 1800-1880. Back of blade slight hollow with square point and double shoulder. Blade measures approximately 3 1/16 x 13/16. On shank still visible “& SHEPHERD - WORKS - SHEFFIELD”, what is missing I believe is “MARSH - POND”. In my honest opinion I believe this razor is by “Marsh & Shepherd”. Blade cleaned, polished and honed shave ready. One small spot of pitting on backside near tip. Very minor hone wear. Hard rubber scales cleaned and polished with original pins. Two small nicks on top edge of scales where blade hit before I tightened it. Blade closes on center.


Light coat of oil for protection on blade. Please look at photos as they are best description.

Honing: Three layers 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.

I bought a Marshes and Shepherd from Bouschie earlier and it's one of my favorite shavers. Mine looks very close to this one, and someone who wants to try a Sheffield blade should jump on this one
