Here are some choices : :banghead: or :gaah:
But that is not the important part.
Now you have to shave test them to get on
a first name basis with them and report
back....
I think it will be a neck and chin race.
One might win on the neck and the other
on the chin with no clear winner.
Well, for all this hubbub about Wosties, the OP owes us all the pic of his new razor! :)
I have a question. I own two Frederick Reynolds faux framebacks, one 7/8 and one 4/8. Love them both. Here's my question: On the tang it only says "Frederick Reynolds Sheffield." I always assumed that both razors were pre-1895. However, Goins' encyclopedia of Cutlery Markings states that "Frederick Reynolds Sheffield" was only in existence from 1919 to 1926. My understanding is that Goins' is the go-to for accurate information concerning cutlery makers.
Anyone have a thought about that?"
Namaste,
Morty -_-
The history of Frederick Reynolds company is very interesting for me, but I can't find a real answer.
