Works for me Andrew. [emoji6]
Ya, I may give that a go for the wedge end. Problem with this ivory is it's recessed into the scales. Even if I file it down, I still need to deal with the expanded pin below the face of the ivory. Doesn't help that all 3 of my 1/6 bits seem to be super dull. :gaah::banghead:
But I''l get er!! :mace:
Those washers look very cleanly machined. Look forward to seeing them installed.
And that Mab almost looks like a taper grind Andrew. Good luck with the surgery brother.
:tu
McMaster Carr sells a killer 3 flute 1/16 drill bit if you ever order from them Andrew. They are my fav for razor work.
When I first saw it I was confused Mike, cause I thought it was bad honing. With a little closer inspection, I realised that it really was suppose to be that way. Shoulderless grind, and beefy through the grind (considering it's size) may be a treat for my beard and I.
Harrywally, nice one! in ivory, the grind is original, also called the Dwarf razor, great find, and quite old actually 1890's to 1920 yours looks like an early Mab.

Oooh! Thanks for that Martin. I searched on here for others, and found some other great ones. Yes, it seems the style of it has changed over the years of manufacturing. Wasn't sure where mine fit in.
..."Nellie Wick shaved five men in 4 minutes 42 seconds with the MAB Razor." Wowzer!
Cool razor, Harrywally. Neat one to be working on!
