    Default 3 razors bought in March

    Here are my purchases from March. I've just given them a very quick polish for this photo.
    Looking forward to restoring them and shaving with them.
    Left to right, W and B Sheffield-a shade over 7/8", Barnascone and Son 'Prolific' Sheffield 13/16"
    and a Northfield Cutlery Co. Conn. 5/8".
    I've got some nice wood saved up for the replacement scales and will post more pics when finished !!

    Not really, but I just feel like slapping some wood on them. I will give it a second thought though !!
    Thanks for the input.

    I like the wood scales too especially burl, but i have seen a few of these older razors restored back to or close to original. Either way, i am sure they will look great.

    Clean and Buff the scales if you can.
    If not I KNOW what a COOL feeling it is to put some NEW WOOD on them!
    Either way those are some FINE looking Razors!
