Thread: Ozzy, Ozzy, Ozzy -

I haven't been doing too much photography until recently, but I have been working on razors.
This is my first Sheffield and, I've been told dates between 1830 - 1850.
It's a George Jochan and, since I only had acrylic to work with at the time, I decided to go a little patriotic and dress her in gold scales with a green wedge.
I think it turned out OK.
It shaves very well and I'm happy to add her to my occamage.
Any comments or information is appreciated

Love the Aussie colours in this razor
Go Geoff go

Nice work Geoff. Go the green and gold.

I can't tell but is that a third pin near the center of the razor? Looking great!

Very well done, clean tight workmanship

The wedge really looks well done in the pics

Very nice. Good work on that one!

I drilled for a third pin BUT (of course) the tail didn't clear it so I tried to fill the hole with CA mixed with sanded acrylic - unfortunately it didn't match
Lesson learned - I'll try three pin scales again though

On ya Geoff & +1 on the cool wedge. Now I remember making the same blue with the 3rd pin one time. You can buy small coloured rhinestones from art stores etc. that would slot right into the hole with a bit of superglue. Emerald would look good & add a bit of bling.
