I was out putting around on the motorcycle and decided I would wander around in the antique store today. I found a neat looking little razor with a very pretty spine on it. I got the clerk to open the case for me and was very disappointed to find that the blade was trashed. I still liked the look of the peacock scales so I went ahead and bought it. I came here and searched for "peacock" and found a few threads,but none with the same blade as mine. The tang is marked A.G.ASHI&N.COURY-MADE in GERMANY on one side,the other side is marked 104. The blade itself seems to read "OUR BEST" but it is really hard to tell. I wish there was enough blade to salvage because I really love the spine on it,but it's hardly anything left of it. Which brings me to my next idea. I got another old W&B that has a blade with what can only be described as excessive hone wear. It actually looks like it spent time dragging on the highway behind a vehicle,but I like it because of the notched blade. The scales on that W&B are pretty bad,but fixable. I would like to see if I can salvage the W&B blade and re-pin it into these peacock scales. Does anyone think that this blade can ever be made shave-able? I have never done anything like this before and will have to do a lot of reading up before I dive in. The blades are pretty close in length and I think they will swap out and still fit nicely. Any thoughts or suggestions?
