They were pretty much mint and had some nice spine work. Now I’m wondering if I should take a ride back there. I may be homeless, but clean shaven
Chicago Pocket Knife Co. 13/16th Made in England I liked the design, and it was a little rusty in some areas, but the rust was light and came off easily. It falls in the size I prefer, 12/16 to 14/16th. The upside was, the razor only cost $3.25 + $3.50 shipping.
Not much. Almost all the dark parts of the blade, are shadows. I might take a little of the High Gloss Shine off of it. The edge looks pretty good, but has a very slight wave, in one part. It should go fairly quickly, because it looks to be an Extra Hollow Grind. Very very thin, and flexible edge, on the blade.
Wolfe's No.100. 13/16th, Extra Hollow Grind. Made in Germany I took a chance with this one, and it will require a minuscule amount of work, to massage out the chip, at the toe. I don't think it will matter, because I will put a little smile on the edge. Except for the little chip, it has a beautiful edge, and finish. It will just need a very little polishing. This one cost more than I liked, at $9.00 + $4.00 shipping. Then again, I like tinkering with edges, so, all is well.
Hopefully I will get ahold of some new stuff this week found someone that knows their way around the thrift stores in japan so maybe some cool stuff to get!
The Torrey Razor Co Worcester Mass. USA. These Torreys hone up nicely. Especially for $6.49, on ebay.
The J.R.Torrey Co. "U.S." Worcester Mass. Another Torrey. This one was bought for $6.99. It should clean up, real nice.
Robeson "SurEdge" , Model "1-5A 200" Rochester NY This one should clean up nicely. I have another, or two, ShurEdge razors, and they are top notch.
At the swap meet. My wife went to use the ladies room when we were leaving. So I wandered back to a stand I visited when I first got there. I noticed it hiding under some junk. Plucked it up right then and there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
