Thread: 9/8 W. Greaves & sons.

Well did I get a nice surprise in the mail today. I won an auction on Ebay 2 sundays ago, for what was listed as, approximately 1" wide blade, W.Greaves & sons razor. When it showed up in the mail today and I measured it, what I saw was a huge surprise.

1 1/8" !!!!!

The price I paid, IMO, is cheap. Original scales, original domed washers, barely any rust, and blade straight as an arrow!! The nicest thing is there's no rust at all in the pivot. There is a wee crack in the scales down by the wedge, but nothing major.

Of course, now all my other "projects" will get put on the back burner, obviously, until this suckers cuttin hairs. Here's the pics of this beast!!
