    Default Joseph Rodgers & Sons Razor Set & Case

    Here is my latest score from Ebay.
    The blades measure 3/4" and 13/16" respectively. My first set of matching razors in what I believe is Ivory. They look like they will clean up well. From the pics they look to be in good condition already.
    They are on their way so I should have them shortly. I've been floating around SRP and it doesn't look like Ivory scales are that rare. Seems that I've been having good luck with Joseph Rodger blades as of late.

    I hope every one is enjoying their weekend

    Looks a bit grainy for ivory, and usually they have no washers. Could be wrong. How thick are the scales Cheetah? Nice pair either way.

    About the scales thickness, you can estimate it on the last picture, with the box' cap off.

    My bet is that it is bone: like Grazor said, they seem a bit grainy, although one (first one on top) looks more like ivory. But I hope I'm wrong, they may both be in ivory.

    Nice catch anyway, especially the double original box.
