Nice! I love the wood on the first two! Did you have that done/do that or did you get them that way?

the one on the right with the thumbnotch is a Bill Ellis restoration in fiddleback Kauri. The second one has lacewood scales made by Garythepenman, but i did the shoddy work cleaning, restoring the blade and rescaling.

But, son, do not accept this bet, because as sure as you stand there, you're going to wind up with an ear full of cider.

Picked these up last week. The bottom razor is stamped: Manufactured by Wade and Butcher for Wolfe and & Hoppe St. Louis. It may be Hoffe. The top one is over an inch wide. Anybody know what size these razors were when new? At first I thought, "Wow, I could make a grip on eboy." But then I came to me senses, and promptly hid them from the spouse.
