Joseph Rodgers Restoration/Optimization (Maybe a WIP?)
I picked up this usual Evil-bay find. This is going to be my first restoration.
Here is what I plan on doing:
-Fully restore the blade up until honing and sharpening
-Carbon fiber scales with bronze wedge
-brass pins and washers
-Maybe adding some jimping for grip.
If you guys like keeping things as original as possible....BE WARNED!
Heres the razor from the bay

Come along and join this WIP with me, it may not be updated day to day(Because I dont have a very acute attention span, but it'll be fun)
Let me know what you guys think so far and of my goal. I have already started unpinning it, but since Im ditching the original scale, I could just snap them off. But that is much to barbaric!
