Is this blade shape original?
Hi guys, me again. Now I was over a C Utz's place a couple weeks ago and we talked about this blade. (HI CHRIS!) Now the one thing I cant remember is if the shape of this edge is original? I seem to remember C Utz saying it was but I want to make sure!

It has a lot of wear but I would say it had a smile to start. I just finished one like this only bigger wth that natural smile

Yep, a prime example of an early frameback.

Hello Derek!
Yep!
I still say it's original!
Let me know if you want to restore those horn scales....you CAN bring those back from the dead....
OH, and a little history on ye ol' razor you have there:
WADE, ROBERT
Sheffield
1810 - 1818 ("Old Sheffield Razors" by Lummus. Antiques, December 1922 p.261-267)
Let me know if you plan on getting rid of that razor!!!! She has a home in my collection!!
