Thread: Wilbert Cutlery Army Special

Can't wait for the pics, the description does it no justice!

Can't comment on the history beside it being around a while and then you bought it. That sums up the history I know. Good thing you did get it. Great razors I love all of my Wosty's.

Also like my Wilberts. Also have one stamped Army, but can't think right now the maker of it.

I've always had a firm grasp of the obvious!

That does seem to be true. I did some research on it last night after a few beers and it was made between 1847 and 1890 mot likely a little earlier. The US began to require that all imported goods be labeled with country of origin around 1890. The reason I think mine is earlier is because Wostenholm started putting England on their blade before it was legally required as a matter of pride.

Ok well I just finished cutting and shaping the scales soon enough I will figure out the whole pinning and finishing the scales thing I will keep you guys posted

I wanted this picture to be part of the last message... my bad being a dumb a** is harder than you think
