    Default W. Greaves & Sons

    All original as far as I can tell; black horn scales and metal wedge. Jimps top and bottom, and a non-standard grind around the spine and tang. Could be a good restore candidate. Blade measures just over 6/8.

    It was in my shaving rotation, but has sat for years - should be good to go but no guarantees.

    $150 shipped in the US (OBO). I will ship outside the US for an extra fee depending on shipping costs.

    I think this razor was made between 1816 and 1821. He brought his sons in to the business in 1816. Sheaf works opens in around 1823. After the factory opened sheaf works was on the tang.
