    Default 3 that need work.

    Found a few razors today in the wild. They all have some issues but the prices were right.

    Top is a Sperry & Alexander Co. New York, Middle is a Schrade Cutlery Co. Walden NY, Bottom is a Wadsworth Razor Co. XLNT.

    The middle razor has some damage to the bolsters but it is still intact. Im gonna try to work it back into place.

    Sadly the S&A has some damaged to the scales. I love the pattern in the celluloid but ill be making replacement scales for this blade. I liked the Minotaur trademark.

    Now i don't know, but i have a hunch the Wadsworth is Ivo. It clicks on the teeth and there is a definite grain pattern in the scale material. Im gonna pop out the pivot pin to clean up the blade so i might try the hot pin test. Any other suggestions?
