Attachment 191311Attachment 191312 The Sheffield with the bone scales I won off the bay and got it this week. as I said earlier this week after I cleaned it up I would wait to see how it shaved. well I honed it and shaved with it and now it looks like it's go a home. the little blade shave quite well. really surprised me. I'm use to a larger and heavier razor. the one with the black scales well I just go it today. it is a The Perfection by Silvan razor. looks to be about 7/8 and hollow ground. Sheffield steel and ground in Germany. I really expected it to be in a lot worse shape than it was. all it took to clean it up was a little buffing with the drimel and drimel buffing pad. I was intrigued so I got out all the stones needed and went to work. in just a short time it was popping hair off the arm and after the 12 and the 20K I stropped and the hanging hair was passed with almost no effort at all. now all that's necessary is for the beard to grow enough to shave. the only thing I am concerned about is the weight. being a full hollow ground blade it is light. I'm really use to the heavier razors.
