Few more from Max showed up
These will make you drool for sure
First a vintage LeGrelot wedge (no Thiers-Issard involvement on these). The 5/8 has some remains of the etching 'recommended for tough beards' along with tiny surface pits that it required. Lovely horn scales
Then comes the what I believe is the 6/8 version of it, but it measures just under 7/8
And yes, they come from different size blanks, not just wear down the big one

Then a Joseph Smith that got a cocobolo scales, which surprizingly I actually like. The spine is worked only on the front side, I don't think I've seen another like that, but it makes sense and I suppose they may be more vintage razors done this way
Another rare one - Wingfield&Rowbottam with ivory covered tang:
And finally a 1830-1837 W&B, superior concave//fine india steel
I think Max did a pretty good job, yes?

Excuse me for being pedantic but the first LeGrelot actually reads "recommended for very tough beards"
Ordinarily tough beards just won't stand a chance.
Congrats ~ Max was right, you have really nice razors.The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.
