Thread: ebay Joy for Ever

No other bidders on this...from the pics online it looked like half the blade was ground away, so I bought it cheap for the nice horn scales to use on another restoration. Turns out that, while there is moderate hone wear on the spine and the tip is a little narrower than the heel, the blade is actually pretty good. I found a post on this site from the late Neil Miller suggesting T Glossop was a Sheffield horn presser (hence the scales) who also sold razors from a market stall. He also notes they are similar in quality and performance to a Kropp. That will do me; so looks like I'll be looking for another scale donor...going to hone this one one up and use it.
