Wostenholm 6/8"

[Merkur25]

This is another razor I just recently purchased. Its is in a dire need of a restore and it will be on its way to Nerdman for a full restore very shortly. Here are some pics of the razor before. No major chips and no cracks in the blade. At $19 shipped I thought it was a good deal.

The blade reads "The Original and only Genuine Pipe Razor, Manufactured solely by Wostenholm & Son, Mark-Granted A-D 1694."

Any information on this one would be appreciated.

Thanks for looking,
Brian

It needs a good cleanup but should be a great shaver!!

Wostenholms are nice razors, that'll be real nice with the nerdman treatment!

Well respected maker. With a little work and some time on the hones, you should have a nice razor.
