    Default Old Lockwood Brothers w/ interesting tang

    This is a heavy piece, full 7/8 not a lot of use. Most of the original crocus finish is intact. Back side has a few warts near the toe. Thought the tang treatment on this one was interesting. It'll be a user too. Horn scales with a shiny doo dad decoration

    Gawd, that looks heavy! Reminds of old Heiffor Army razors, it does! Light buff, 2 layers to start. What a nice shaver it will be!
    Enjoy!

    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    Nice razor Wullie. In a pinch you could split logs with it :<0) Love that tang. Ground in or hammered you think? I am guessing ground.

    It's ground that way. Two steps on top, one step on the bottom. Fingers fit the top, thumb fits the bottom.

    Boy, go to bed early and see what I miss. Another nice one for sure with an interesting take on a tang treatment.
