Greaves "American"
W. Greaves & Sons SheafWorks "American Razor". This 7/8" beauty has a decorative double scalloped spine, and a very deep hand etched eagle. Original horn scales with a mother of pearl inlay. This was simply cleaned up and honed. It has a very comfortable and keen edge.
Greaves & Sons Duo
A pair of William Greaves & Sons 6/8” near wedges. The double coffin storage box is super cool. Both have Sheaf-works horn scales with stamped nameplates. All original collars and pins. Great shavers.
Wade & Butcher G.R. 15/16”
An unrestored Wade & Butcher near wedge. This 15/16” blade is extremely dense and heavy and still wears the original scales. It glides through facial hair like butter. Truly an amazing artifact. The GR stamp dates it to the reign of King George III, between 1760 through 1820.
George Marsden stubtail
A very rare Marsden 6/8” cast steel stubtail restored by Joe Edson. Black horn period correct “straight” scales in black horn.
Wade & Butcher 13/16” hollow
My first real straight razor. An amazing Wade & Butcher that was reground hollow beat back in the day. Hollow grinding was a common service done in the late 1800’s. It was to provide easier sharpening for users. I handmade the black locust scales by hand and used copper hardware for a vintage look.
milarskyAn incredible DE razor. Legendary.
