Thanked: 522Winter Restoration Project
One of my winter resto projects is going to be rescaling this seven razor set by C Myers & Son - Sheffield
As it stands now, we will use a block of black/white ebony for the scales and "A" Fancy walnut for the wedges and hopefully nickel/silver pins for aesthetic value.
The blades are 13/16" but one of them is chipped so that one will come down to 6/8 for sure after honing. Shame..........
I have another seven day set by Hill & Son, 4 Haymarket. The word "ENGLAND" is not on the tang if someone wants to date this set. The Hill & Son set will need next to no resto. The blades are intact as are the scales. The date on the wooden case is 1923. My father was 6 years old at that time.
Please post your razor sets so we can all enjoy looking at them. Someone went to some degree of trouble to make sets of razors and I enjoy looking at them whenever possible...

Thanked: 522I guarantee that I will post pics. I definitely want this resto to come to fruition. I merely need to get some nickel/silver rod. All the other materials are in stock. The rest is just doing it.
