    Default John Barber-Pre 1823

    Here is a John barber pre 1823. It was in 1823 he was granted his masonic trademark. There were also some rumors of him cautioning the public against some frauds but I really don't think this is one of them as it looks too good to be a fake but really, who knows? I love the Spanish point on it!!!!

    I'll probably just do a light cleanup on it to keep it looking its age. Thank you Dave!
    I might even hone it & shave with it.

    You absolutely should hone it and shave with it, whiskers pretty die from fear when one of those old masters comes at them.
