It is a Micrometer, for precise measurements :)
I cleaned up a George Butler & Co, Sheffield 6/8" full hollow from the resto lot Joe Chandler sent me last night.
It had a nice straight edge and looked like an easy place to start my latest adventure.
Polished the tarnish out with blue magic and then spent an hour or so with the 8/12, .5 3M paper, a little .25 strop and a straight clean paddle strop.
A new definition for sharp for me. I can't get my wapis like this.
Wow. I used my new chinese badger brush and some AOS Lavender, I need to learn to add more water now. This make more, thicker foam than I'm used to (woo hoo).
Complete faceturbation....
