3/8" unmarked "Midget" Razor, Looking for info/ideas
Now that I have a new obsession...... Here is a surprisingly small 3/8" razor marked only by "Midget" and "6435" on the tail of the tang. The blade is 2-3/4" long and to an inexperienced eye, it doesn't look to be honed to death. It came in a George Wostenholm & Son LTD case that says " The Original & Only True Pipe Razor" and I have doubts if this is the original box. The blade its self has a even a full patina to it with what looks like some active rust near the pin, there is also a small chip right on the cutting edge about 1" from the heal side.
I had no plans for this but due to its size part of me wants to clean it up (if the chip can be honed away) just to have it as a detail razor. opinions/suggestions are welcome, please discuss!
