Calling all Guru's.....A.Tredway and sons razor
Yes I know about the search function, but it's not yielding anything, so I thought I'd ask here. Looking for pictures to drool over...of 'A. Tredway and Sons razors. I have a Army/Navy one, that I'd like to restore, just guestioning what it looked like originally due to big time hone wear, and scales presently on it. What I have found is that A. Tredway and son's was the first Hardware retailer West of the Mississipi.
Any visual reference would be appreciated.
Thanks
Aaron

Maybe you have already come across these references with Google - only one razor image, though:

YEp I found the razor they had, but not the axe, which is interesting in itself. I'll post pic's of mine later. I did a light sanding job, didn't want to ruin the Army/Navy and Eagle etching on the blade, it's already been honed way down. Thought to tumble it, but liked how it looked after the Maa's polish. It's not perfect but sure has character, it honed up very nicely, and is shave ready. Just need to trim down the micro-fastner I used at the pivot.Last edited by 1971Wedge; 10-13-2011 at 09:02 PM.

Any reason why I can't post up more than one pic?
