thanks

A shame he won't sell it to me but yes, lots of wedgey goodness in a nice little package. Only around 2.5" but great to shave with.

Good morning M, couldn't find anything that fit the bill perfectly but here are a few ivories,

Oh, and a pair of Le Grelots

Nice razors Jimmy.
How are you getting on with those Le Grelot razors?

Believe it or not I have never shaved with them. I will get around to them eventually. I tend to shave with razors that need work. I like to see the results of my honing. Those two came from Martin at Rasupur and were sharp when I received them. I have shaved with the B&B Le Grelot but that one needed a helluva lot of honing when I got it.

Any one heard of William Wood as a razor maker ???
Not made in France but Liverpool. Fits the other criteria tho. If its not Ivory it's a good imitation.

I love the graceful curves of this razor, very artfully made!

I think it fits LSBFW's criterion nicely.

I thank you.
Does anyone else like this type of razor then?
I have a razor that I think is perfect
Here it is

this is what I like.
It's only flaw is it isn't French.
It's a fine shaver though.

HoHoHo wait til xmas and the Royal Razor if you think that one's nice......(although it broke my heart to sell it!)

Looks very similar (blade wise) to this: http://straightrazorpalace.com/galle...ic-scales.html

I will be selling it once honed although I think Doc has first choice when I set a price. It also isn't french. I also have a Genco that looks like the blade in post #9 I think. It is almost done being restored. Just whenever I feel like finishing it! Obviously also not French.

That is a beauty M. I love that sort of razor but then again I haven't seen too many that I didn't like. Just some more then others.
