    Beautiful razors.
    Unless your skills are exceptional, send your father's razor out to one of the professionals on this forum to refurbish.
    I was given my grandfather's razor form the 1820's, I sent it to the pros here and it will last another 200 years. I'm glad I did not attempt restoration myself.

    Which pro did you send it too and how much did it run? I am thinking of making the scales myself and having the blade restored by someone else.

    Welcome, you've already received great advice. Nice razors.

    I'm a little late to the game, but I've got to say your off to one heck of a start and seem to have either a pretty good eye for old razors. Everyone of those is a workhorse and will give you many years of shaving enjoyment. That Wolstenholm is something you want to pass on to someone in your family someday who will appreciate it and not just throw it in a drawer. Properly restored it will be a sight to see. And please post pictures if you do have it restored.
