Here is the Finished Product
Here are the pics of the finished product. This is an old Marshes and Shepherd frameback 6/8 with Barber's notch. I hope you will take a look and let me know your thoughts. Tee blade doesn't scrub anymore and the Purpleheart wood is much different than I expected. I ended up adding extra spacers and nylon washers on the hing pin and the added two blace wedges both about 1/16 wide and it ended up working. The shave is is incredible, though I have come to expect this with these Sheffield blades. I am selling it to a newbie form work and I I hope he is happy with it. Since the blade is at least 157 years old, I think he will say he is using a peice of history. I am also giving him the origninal bone scales if he ever wants a pro form here to fix it to original and put it in a collection. Let me know if you think he will like it.
Thanks for all the helpful comments. There are some great people on this site.
