Thread: Joseph Elliot clean up

This week I have been busy renovating the Joseph Elliot, think I can be satisfied so far. He must be polished so that it really does shine.
And he needs some new scales and in my opinion he is ready.
nice shape, feels good in hand, think this is a keeper.

Very nice work, ready for another hundred years or so

Very Good. Tastefully done. I like the thumb notched tang! Enjoy!

Nice looking! I think Joseph Elliots are awesome, I wouldn't trade the one I have for anything.

very nice work... im gathering all kinds of inspiration from you all to not just work on scales.

well done, I love the pittings at the blade

He is old, you will not leave any pitting or you should get a lot of material away.
Find it have something old
if you have to believe he is older than me.

You made a great work! This razor must be at least 100 years old. And now it's a beauty queen.
