    I have been away for awhile and when I came home I had this razor waiting for me.

    Rasoir Sabre Russian Bear 7/8th
    This razor is completely different from the other two I acquired earlier this year. The steel is very similar to Sheffield steel, not as thin as the other two. I look forward to trying it out later.[​IMG]

    F.W.Engels
    "Argo Steel"
    Solingen Germany
    Bone Scales.
    6/8+ inch, 3/4 Hollow.

    This one has some potential, and just needs some TLC. Only cost $16, including shipping. I know the scales aren't original, but, I might have some nice original F.W.Engels scales, with Hansel & Gretel on them, in Silver, with a less than perfect FWE blade. I haven't done anything with the other FWE yet. The bone scales can go good with about anything.

    Hey Scott, I’m guessing that it’s 1950s maybe early 1960s.
