This is one of Wostenholm's Original Pipe Razors. Designated by the pipe emblem on the reverse of the tang. It is also a PEERLESS model and is so printed on the blade face. As for the condition of this particular razor, hone wear is non-existent and all the metal surface finishes in some cases are in better than new condition. This is because the tang, monkey tail and spine have been polished to a toaster like mirror finish, which the original razor was not. The blade is a full 5/8 wide, is made of carbon steel with a hollow grind. The scales are the original horn scales that are still in excellent condition. Recently honed and stropped to provide a smooth, close and comfortable shave this razor comes guaranteed shave ready.
