W. Greaves & Sons Sheaf Works straight razor
Cheetah Meat here reporting from the poor house..thats why this blade is so small I guess.
Along with huge razors I also love blades that look like they might be a pain in the ass to hone.
I really love the tapered blade look...nevermind shaving. Looks are all that matters...LOL
I cant wait to get her home and scrape all of the crude off and polish 'er up.
Thanks for looking

Definately got some work ahead of you, have fun!
Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

So you're the one who got that one. I picked up the tapered Fred Fenney, can't wait to get that one. Been a couple tapereds around lately.

I haven't found the right blade yet. Maybe if i had Sharp's 9/8 Greaves or Wullies 9/8 Masonic I'd be lathering up my face right now with some cow fat, some bacon strips and 2 hot towels massaging my jawline with a toothbrush, a pigeon and some hot pachullie oil Originally Posted by EisenFaust

A Greaves "rat Razor"!! I've got a Reynold's "rat razor" with slightly less patina and I LOVE IT!
