First razor of mine that was a gift to me. Razor was in okay condition and sent it off to get repaired after 4-5 years of having it. Blown away by the restoration, thanks Gssixgun.

Yes he did a great job, that looks amazing!!
Enjoy your shaves with that fine Sheffield steel
Very nicely done, Glen strikes again.!
Looks great. Congratulations!
That's a beauty! Enjoy
You sent it to the right guy. What a great looking razor. Enjoy!
Great job as usual.........Glen never disappoints!
Glen does some fantastic work. He once said he could not add metal to a razor but he did on a Joseph Rodgers & Sons frame back for me a while back but I can't find the tread (A Slick Fix) to link to it.
That's a beauty, congrats!
Cheers, Steve
That's a gorgeous razor, and I have a couple exactly like that...beautiful FBU's that have been hollow ground, from 7/8 to 8/8 usually see them, and I swear to the razor gods, when I shave with them, it's like shaving with the inspiration for the Spanish Fili, Palmera, Hoppe etc.. #14's, only nicer IMO...the Great, Great Grandfather of the #14 and inspiration behind the style (I'm making this part up, but it sounds nice!).
I always get a laugh using these blades, the grind has been done superbly, transforming these massive old wedges into these singing blades...congrats, and it looks stunning - enjoy.
And seeing this, has decided the razor for my evening shave....:D
Aloha!
Outstanding! Congrats indeed. I love my FBU. I'd never part with it.
Enjoy!
