Here are two razors, both alike in dignity (geddit?!)...
The first is one of the first razors I managed to restore and hone from properly beaten up and rusted, and it's still right up there with my best shavers. So I picked up the second off ebay cos I've got some spare ivory scales and I'm going to make a matching pair.
Except I notice now that they're not quite going to be matching are they, so I was wondering: Was a there a point when stabilizers were invented, or became fashionable? Any particular time period associated with their use? I'm assuming the first one is older, though I may be wrong...
