    Well well, where did that one turn up?
    Blueprinciple says they are about 150 years old. Your blade is the same shape as mine. Your scales are rounded in shape though.
    Mine has only been honed once no touch ups and it's still really sharp, it is still just about my best hair remover!
    Thanks for showing us it.

    Hi Guys,

    Sorry to ressurct this old thread. I used to be the owner of this exact razor, i think i bought off th op some seven years ago.

    I absolutley loved this razor, it was my favourite and my go to one.

    Unfortunatley due to the recession around that time i was owed 8 months of my salary from work and i was in dire straights. I was forced to sell all my razors, hones and TM strop.

    It was heart breaking have to sell this one especially.

    However, i am in a position to buy it back. I dont remember who i sold it too as my ebay listings wont go back that far, but if anyone on this forum has it and is willing to part with it then please pm me.

    Kind regards,

    Danny

    I was thinking off de-scaling the Webster, polishing it right up and putting some ebony scales I'm working on, on it. But, the razor is complete with proper box and just needs a new bevel and sharpen to be good, so I am a bit reluctant to mess with it.
    Anyone got an opinion on whether to mod it?

    if scales are original to the blade i would leave them alone " more value and history " i would just polish and sharpen " my thoughts "

    I hate that for you. I know that has to suck. We all sometimes have to make sacrifices. I hope you can get it back. Good luck with that.
