Thread: Another ebay find...

Picked this one up for around 23 bucks encluding the shipping. Very hollow DC Halsted.

The blade is in pretty good condition but the scales are bug eaten badly. Plus they are longer than the blade as in a half inch space between the wedge and the toe when closed. The wedge is part of the scales like they made scales thicker and shaped the material into two half wedges. The pins look new and shinny. Not even scratched so i think someone put this together to sell. I could be wrong.
Scales look to be horn but eaten up so bad that im going to replace them. Thinking some kind of wood. Maybe on my next weekend ill get some time for it. Faint stainning on the blade but no real pitting or hone ware so im happy with that. From what i could find, and theres not much info, thinking 1860 to 1880. Sheffield razor without the word England.


Thanks for looking.
