    Default Won this one at an online auction

    This was in a small lot along with a nice Gillette blue tip and a couple of other knick knacks. The description said it was a Frederick Reynolds but I couldn't really tell as the pics were not great and with the rust of course. But I could tell it was a decent blade and I got it for a song. Turns out to be a 15/16 Barlow and Sons near wedge. It's looking pretty good after a preliminary de-funking and will look even nicer with some more elbow grease. I've got another Barlow wedge which shaves like a dream and I'm sure this one will as well.Happy shaves fellas.Name:  20160608_150646.jpg

    Just some Blue Magic and an old rag. Stuff works pretty well.

    Nice Barlow! I have a couple & they aren't as common as some other Sheffield cutlers at the time but they are really good razors! Any of the Sheffield steel is always good.
