Pipe & dart

I had wanted for some time a razor that I could firmly place in the 1700s. It took a lot of waiting for something to pop up in my price range (I'm cheap). I managed to pick this up on a low ball bid that I never expected to hold. One scale was broken, but all original hardware was present. It's been everything I'd hoped it would. It's a wonderful experience.

Cool, looks good

Fantastic piece of history!

Nice job, I like the washers. They are the originals?

Yes. I wanted to keep it as original as possible. The only thing I did different was the pins. They were originally iron, now they are 3/32 brass.
