    Default FS- Brookes & Crookes 13/16 - Ivory Scales

    SOLD!!!!!!!

    Beautiful antique Sheffield razor with genuine ivory scales.

    Datewise, I'd guestimate 1840 - 1850 making it 160+ years old.

    Jimps on both the top and bottom of the tang.

    The blade measure 20.3 mm which makes it 13/16 in size.

    I've just refreshed the edge with on a Shapton Pro Ceramic 12k and then a Frankonian German waterstone. Fantastic shaver.

    Price is $159. Registered and insured worldwise postage is $22.70. Within Australia, it's $8.25
