Wow, great razor Scott, a family razor is always super special.

Not to mention that Genevas shave like a million bucks!

Just curious, are you going to restore it or just use it as it came to you, with minimal cleanup?

 

Thanks. It deserves a good restore.
I got caught up with a lot of things. I will see about working on it, over the Christmas season. Thanks for reminding me.

Wont be much acquisitions from straight razor designs otherwise known as gem star it seems ..Straight razor place hijacking discussions on forums including moderators & People being locked out & how its a blemish on the straight razor community..It strongly suggests a lot of dodgy stuff going on there & Legality & Court issues..It shows that a lot of them have passed away or ill..I Am Laughing All Ova the Joint,,Never Posted on SRP..Not Trusted it for years..I Like Wheel Guns..Me Not Stupid..

 

They've been DOA for a long while.

I had to pass his table on my way out. As I went by, he got up and smashed my hat down on top of my head. I took it off and popped it back out. This apparently annoyed him, as he shouted, "You don't like the way I fix hats? I've been fixin' hats for forty years." I put it back on my head and he smashed it down again. I said, "I'm not even gonna give you a chance to apologize," and walked out.
