    Default A Waterville & Reynold's

    The Waterville came from Rodb, bought from our BST column. She's a beauty, for a 5/8ths razor in excellent condition. Thanks, Ron.!!

    The Frederick Reynolds was bought from Robert Williams, when I went to visit him at his shop last Wednesday.
    I couldn't refuse the price, especially when I believe the scales are authentic tortoise holding the rattler ground blade.

    Though both were shave ready, I gave them a few passes on the B/G Escher to make sure.

    A couple of real beauties Mike.

    Did Robert do a full restoration on the Reynolds or is that original?
    I have one with almost identical scales that needed a lot of repair work.

    Enjoy!

    Looks all original.
    Little rust on the tang, between the scales, and some lite pitting. He may have done a light cleaning,but that's all

    I didn't ask.!!

    Stunning razors Mike, I love the Reynolds.
