Thread: Nice find!

I kinda dig the patina on the chopper, its so even over the entire blade other than a few small spots, not sure how I wanna go about this one. There is a chunk out of one side of the scales sadly, but otherwise they would have been perfect, the other blades need minimal work

Just an opinion, you done good and, to me, the icing on the cake is the first one. I have not seen the clip spine on a fully hollow ground razor before.

I had seen the clip spines before but never really paid much attention to the grind as i have only owned one and its a stub tang, its in great shape though, pretty sure 1000 grit sand paper is all it needs other than maybe the tang. I like the size, I will get a pic of it from the end of the blade up for ya tomorrow when I have better lighting, the scales are still nearly perfect as well. He had a lot of other nifty blades as well, a torrey with mop covered tang, and snap shut bakelite scales, but I got all the bigger blades. Pretty sure when he gets more razors I get first look now too (said these have been the worst of his guys blades so far lol) ;-)

Here's a couple better pics for ya Geezer....still can't believe how nice and original it is!

And a couple more

My appologies, didn't reallize my resolution has been set low on my phone...try again lol....

Thank you!
That method certainly saved a lot of material in manufacturing and, 'seems to me, allows a better first grind angle (large wheel) and a resulting thinner, wider, bevel area.
Thank you for restoring it!
