Good so use the edge of the table to apply pressure to the edge of the spring, sort of hang the comb of the razor off the edge and push firmly on the spring. Be careful and think about what you are trying to do, bend it tighter to where it holds the blade snug.
Well shoot, now that you know what needs to happen and it's not working ! would say two things, push harder but be careful, or send it to me and I'll fix for you no charge. I have a couple other tricks. If the blade is loose I can fix this for you my friend.
I saw it, I bought it, now I have to wait for it.... Per the seller.. "THE RAZOR IS A B-1. IT IS SILVERPLATE, GROOVED HANDLE AND A SMOOTH BAR. I BELIEVE IT TO BE THE ORIGINAL WHITE BOX. THE LEATHER SHEATH IS NOT TORN. THE WHITE BOX IS STAINED AND IS PARTIALLY SPLIT ON THE TOP. THE HANDLE OPENS AND CLOSES EASILY TO LOAD THE BLADES./ THERE ARE BLADES IN THE HANDLE AS 1 LOADED WHEN I OPENED THE HANDLE FOR THE PICTURES. THIS RAZOR IS IN EXCELLENT USABLE CONDITION THERE IS ONE UNOPENED EVERSHARP PACKAGE OF 20 BLADES. THERE IS ALSO AN UNOPENED WAR PACKAGE OF 20 BLADES WITH THE DIRECTIONS." I have been looking for a war package of blades for a while that aren't priced through the roof. For one to come included in a boxed razor, no brainer. Now I just have to explain it to the checkbook...... Note, these are the sellers pictures.
I saw that one, I think. Yep, your checkbook is gonna require a bit of a tale, that's for sure! But it's all yours now!
Hmmm, just leaves me with that extra B1 in my collection. I wish I knew someplace where people might be interested in it......... Oh excuse me, was I typing out loud? Sorry, just my thoughts running away with me again.
Ya gotta watch when your "inner monologue" takes over your typing hand. Ha! If you want me to "dispose" of your extra B1 let me know.
My gold B2 came in the mail today. I'm surprised how heavy these are. I still have to clean it. The slide works smoothly. The top has a little plate loss, but otherwise it looks wonderful. I 'staged' the photo for my SRROC friends. Can't wait to clean it and pair it up with its silver B1 brother that's on its way.
