W. Greaves and Sons Cast Steel, Sheaf Works

This model of razor might be somewhat pedestrian, but the condition is outstanding. I received this one through ebay. Despite some pesky rusted spots, this is more or less as it would have appeared from the factory. It's hard to tell if there's even any hone wear - it's easy to forget that the original grinds on razors this early were EXCELLENT, with bevel sizes that rival hollow ground razors. Circa 1820s. The pictures truly don't do it justice.

Yeah. That's a keeper!

That is just so beautiful. You are truly blessed...

Beautiful! I've been looking for a certain Greaves razor for awhile...that one is superb. Nice find.

That could sit in my razor rack any day. That's a sweet looking blade!

The untouched Greaves is truly a blessing. 'Greavses have Souls!' :D

Very nice.

I am intrigued by the pins and washers.

Very nice! I've got one just like it. Maybe pedestrian but they are wonderful shavers...one of my favorites.
