I can’t remember if I’ve posted about this razor before, but it intrigues me and wonder if anyone on SRP has seen one of these before or can fill in some history.
I think scale is pressed leather (or rubber?) and this is my only razor with that scale material.
I was anxious about honing it, but it seems to have taken a good shaving edge using a normal hone progression.

Yup, boiled and pressed leather. Not a lot of them survived this long. It’s a decent example.

Bouschie, I thought I had seen one of those before.

I knew I had one at one time but did not remember when or which one.
