Beautiful shave. The best shave on youtube. What a good final result. Magnificent.
Thanks sajad, Much appreciated :)
You are the best Master Restorer you have beautiful razors beautiful stones and you know how to shave with speed class elegance with any razor, any grind and blade height you are the TOP
@@SimonettaCattaneo-d8m wow high praise indeed. Thank you it is appreciated :)
@@EdgeDynamicsEnglishRazors You deserve it, I always watch all your videos and channels, simply spectacular, the TOP REALLY
@@SimonettaCattaneo-d8m Discount for you Sir, should you ever buy anything. Thanks again.
@@EdgeDynamicsEnglishRazors thank you are you very gentleman!!;💕
Wow...who made that giant Masonic chopper...does that say "Shaw & Sons"? I have two big 8/8 Greaves wedges that look very similar!
Yes Shaw & Sons.
Hi Joseph. Nice little stubtail. I need to draw upon your vast knowledge and exposure to vintage Sheffield razors. I have a beautiful early stubtail that I need help identifying. It's an 8/8 wedge with a spine thickness just shy of 1/4". The shape is similar to your Rutherford but with more swoop to the spine and blade. The maker's mark is either: G.R , Q.R , G.B , Q.B...over "BEST.STEEL". I'm guessing G.R for George Rex which would fit stylistically its likely production period prior to 1820. It still has its original nearly straight (just a hint of swoop) cow horn scales. Below is my best attempt at recreating the primitive stamp. Any help would be greatly appreciated...as I've been trying unsuccessfully to ID this blade for almost a decade now! Thanks for all your great content! G.R BEST.STEEL
Could it be G.P for George Palmer No.1 st. James's? He used the G.R Crown. I read that his razors were actually made by John & William Ragg. Food food for thought.
@@EdgeDynamicsEnglishRazors Thanks... I'll have to look into that. I was hoping that perhaps you had seen that stamp before and recognized it. Thanks again.
Hi Joe a nother fine production there how's the business side going
Hi John, Slow at the moment but it comes in waves. Many thanks :)
I use glycerin and water on my Arks as well. Acts like oil but without the mess! the last 50 strokes per bevel, I use dish soap and water with light pressure. A trick my father taught me 40-some-odd years ago. Leaves a very crisp edge...and cleans the stone at the same time.
@@Master...deBater Sounds good, mine are neglected, I should get them out. Cheers
Nice shave 👍🙂
Thanks Peter. I deserved it :)
Wish you succes with the project 👍👍👍
Thanks Peter, it is already getting interesting, i should have done this a long time ago.
@@EdgeDynamicsEnglishRazors Sign me up 😃😃😃👍👍👍
Hi Joseph. That John Elliot is real beautiful and i guess you should try it sometime. About the Kamisori i must say it is a great razor that requires a bit more adaptation wich is not a problem for you. Liked the performance once more my friend. It is a pleasure watch your skill. Thank you so much for posting. Stay safe.👍
Thanks Paul, I appreciate the kind words. Have a great week ahead.
I have a few Kamisori's but I've never been able to get a good shave from one. Mine feel dangerous as hell so I muted the points but I have too many other straights go bother revisiting them.
Hi T, They are worth the effort in the log run. I really want a vintage Iwasaki but who dosnt. Have a great week ahead and thanks for commenting.
The Kamisori shaved well Joseph.
Hi Jamie, It shaved very well. Cheers :)
Hope you’ll still continue your honing services! Best ever
Hi, Yes honing and restoration services with always be their. Many thanks :)
Still knocking out these fine episodes Joe and that comment on razor making great ideal
Cheers John, I am still filming, producing & directing these masterpieces :) Long may they continue. Good to hear from you. Thanks.
Come on Joseph, take us on that razor making journey! Great restoration as always, doing those superb craftsmen of yester year proud. Well done indeed.
Thanks Arforty, I will take you on the razor train. Toot toot :) Just goto sneak an oven past the missus.. Cheers
Look forward to seeing what you come up with. The annealing is the key to a good razor. See if you can get "Metallurgy of Steel for Bladesmiths and Others who Heat Treat and Forge Steel" by John D. Verhoeven as it's got all sorts of info you'll need on your journey.
Thanks T, I was thinking that annealing could be the key to softer feeling steel. I will take a look at that book. Cheers
Hello Joseph, looking for forward to some work of you. I know it will be high standard like al your restorations. You do good 👍,maybe one day i will own a razor then from you.
Hi Frank, Thanks for the support. I hope everything works out, time will tell. Cheers
Lovely tiny razor Joseph. Anyway both performed great. Good cream as well. Tobs produce fantastic creams at a very affordable price. Another jolly good show my friend. Look always to see you. Take care and stay sharp.👍
Thanks Paul, Nice to hear from you. Hope you have a great week ahead.
Joseph, the Ellin is one cute-looking little Stubtail.
Hi Jamie, It is even cuter in the hand. Cheers
making razors wow . forging steel or using flat bar already done mate . i can imagine forging steel would need a pretty big workshop for the hammers and such . plus some pretty laid back next door neighbours 🤣🤣🤣
Hi Paul, Flat bar for me at the moment. I would love a complex , factory, labs, workers etc. One can dream. Thanks Paul.
@@EdgeDynamicsEnglishRazors oooo yes i have 2 forged modem razors and i love them one has very interesting scales indeed . i really look forward to seeing your work my friend . have you found a steel that suites your needs . they don’t make it like they used to
Great skill to shave with that little blade. How fiddly was that? Making your own razors sounds challenging for sure, not to say pretty expensive too. Are you planning only wedges or will you have a bash at framebacks too? Best of luck, T
Hi Trunker, It was easier than anticipated, I haven't measured it but it is defiantly under 5/8ths. Making razors is expensive but how can you put a price on destiny :) I have many ideas wedges mainly and maybe faux frambacks . Many thanks.
Hi Joe back with your fine video hope all is well been away again finely setting in to retirement catch you on the next one
Hi John, Good to hear from you. All is well, retirement sounds good :) Cheers
Joseph is a razor master. It is always a pleasure to see the shaves you perform. By the way Musgo Black is a top notch cream. Have a great week my friend.
Hi Paul, Yes that was a special one. Always appreciate your comments. Have a great week yourself.
I'm a steel person ,your finishing is superb Joseph 👌
Thanks Martin, i have a secret way of removing grind marks and im still progressing.
Fabulous results by my reckoning 👌
Cheers
wow those scales are absolutely stunning as is the razor . frame backs are definitely one of my favourite razors for sure 👍
Hi Paul, They are pretty swish :) Have a great week.
Great work Joseph, love the scales on the CT Bingham beautiful.
Thanks Jamie, I think i can get another set from that blank, can't wait to try.
Very handsome blades my friend. 💯
Thanks Chuck.
Absolutely gorgeous this one. Congratulations!!!!
Thanks, much appreciated. It is a bit gorgeous.
What is more quality than Wade&Butcher
Lovely work Joseph 👏 im not really a jnat person , i admire those trully old razors , but cant afford them . Your work is amazing 👏.
@@Martins-Shaves123 Thanks Martin, Jnat honing is a spiritual experience for me. If the mountain has a spirit then do does a piece of it :) The older the razor the better in my books. Thanks for the compliments.. Have a great week. Cheers.
5:36 I still find it funny that you always do the left side in one stroke. Old habits I suppose. I like that John Heiffer, it deserves a new set of scales.
Hi T, I shave on autopilot. John Heiffor is waiting for me to finish my Tally Ho for next weeks shave. Cheers, have a great week.
Good job 👍🙂 is this razor for sale?
Hi, these razors will eventually get on the website. You can always email me. Thanks.
Those can't be the same razors... wonderful job my friend
Thanks Sean, It was difficult to start these restoration because of the work involved, luckily it all went well .Cheers
Joseph, a very nice lineup, those pair of John Pearce razors look great. PS very good detective work the the connection to the Wild Bill Hicock razor.
Hi Jamie, They took a layer of skin the shave was really close. Happy they are restored and i can move on :)
3rd Razor is a beast. First one worth to be in Museum. Nice work as usual.
Thanks Ded, It is a beast. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I push the pin true with my drill machine but don't let it run. But the pin for tapping in the drill machine and push it true. The scales don't brake like that.
En donde se pueden conseguír las navajas qué usas.
Hi, They are for sale on my website which is linked in the description. Unfortunately the website is broken at the moment but should be back to normal later today. Thanks
Great work done again Joseph 👌👏
Thanks Frank :)
Your website appears to be down at the moment, is something wrong?
Hi Gary, Hopefully it should be back to normal tomorrow. God willing :) Thanks
Perfect harmony 👌
Needs a decent sound system to appreciate. Cheers Martin.
Outstanding work Joseph. The Greaves scales look fantastic. Good stuff 👍
Thanks Mick. Much appreciated :)
I want a greaves & sons so bad
One day Sean, one day :) cheers
W Greaves & Sons, what a treasure. And Joseph, you really are a razor master. It is a pleasure seeing any of your vids. Please never give up of showing your skill mate. Have a great week my friend.👍
Kind words. Thank you. Have a great week yourself :)
Nice. Very nice. 👍
Many thanks :)
@@EdgeDynamicsEnglishRazors I can’t open your site :( 503 Service Unavailable
Sorry about that. My website company are on the case. Thanks
Masterful restorations Joseph, and a great shave ...wish i could restore that well ( I know my place 😂 and I keep to the lesser makers )
Hi Martin, I am always improving so check me out in 10 years from now :) Thanks
Perfection to the very details.
Mr Altino, Thank you.
Joseph, I love the look of the Greaves.
Hi Jamie, It is a quality piece. Thanks :)
Great stones. However, the condition of the last stone is very poor; it was dropped during processing and has internal fractures. Why do you need such a large size? Is it really convenient to use?
Hi Beibit, I do not need such large stones but that is how they cut them. They are not convenient nor inconvenient. They are huge :)
As usual. Top.
Thank you Sir.
Amazing finish on the cooper 👏 possibly pewter caps and inlay ? Im not surprised it shaved you well , as you'd already found the qualities of the steel 🎉 Excellent shave from your wonderful restoration 👏
Hi Martin, Yes pewter sounds and looks right. It is a little gem that one. Many thanks.
Love the intro 😂 Nice blade and shave 👍👍👍
Thanks Peter, It is a good intro but i have one with zombies which beats it, i think :) Cheers
