Frederick Reynolds still one of the best
Attachment 172215
I have always believed that Frederick Reynolds razors were one of the best quality blades ever made but I have read many times that they are difficult to set the bevel and difficult to hone.
I have three Reynolds blades and Wednesday I decided to pull one of them out of the old pile and see if I can hone the damn thing.. Turns out that it honed up beautifully once the bevel was set. My shave this evening was yet another joy to experience. This Reynolds is scaled in black micarta and shaves magnificently.
I have two more Reynolds to hone. Hopefully they will shave just as well.......................
