7/8+ Joseph Allen
Scored this one on the bay tonight, had to get up at 03.20 in the morning to make my bid. Looks really nice, but scales are warped so will need a rescale. I think classic Sheffield meatchopper style in black horn would be nice, You?
Amund.

Very nice Joseph Allen you got yourself there! And I agree, with a blade of that size classic meat-chopper style scales should go very nicely indeed! Well done!

Nice piece. So i'm not crazy either.. I got an old sheffield a bit ago and it had the same taper on the edge as yours..albiet a little more pronounced from improper sharpening.. But atleast I know it's suppose to look like that.

Had it on my list and was following it but it didn't sell for cheap. None the less a gorgeous razor. Enjoy Amund.
