Hi guys,
Just wanted to share this, it's a Joseph Rodgers I picked up a wee while back in a bit of a state, not horrendous but in need of new scales and some loving.
Sent it off to Mr Miller and he sent me this back.....

New scales look great, I cant make the pics any bigger for some reason.
I'm off to join the wedge club now :D
I have this exact same blade sitting on my bench waiting to be restored. Your's looks awesome!! I bet it shaves great too. I have two other Joseph Rodgers and both are superb shavers! congrats on this razor!!
Not shaved with it yet but tomorrow can't come quick enough. I'm just a bit excited.Quote:

It does have the littlest bit of pitting left but it gives it character. Thanks for the compliment, I'm one very happy bunny.
Note to self: it has a pointy, sharp, square bit. Be carful around the chin!
I have fielded a few Rodgers of varying ages and they are all outstanding to shave with. Congratulations!

Now that's a heavy one! Congrats and enjoy! :chapeau Bet the edge is fine! Have not experienced it, but Neil is....well, Reputed! ..For edges! (Among other things ;))
Your right about the pitting, Just character that's all! Hope this one gives you many smooth shaves in the future!!!
I see me and Joseph here having a long and happy relationship.
The edge is fantastic, barely feel it taking the bristle at all.
I want another one! Wife said no. We shall see
Dave sorry in advance I could not help myself. "I want another one! Wife said no." Another Wife? Sorry again I know you meant a JR&S razor.Quote:
