Hello, my second post here I was wondering if there is a straight razor "bible" with all or most vintage razors pictured for identification and education? I have something similar for cigars by min Ron nee... Anything like that exist?
Standard Guide to Straight Razors 3rd Edition Ebay has them That is a good start There are also the Cutlery Marks guides and some online guides
A little confused Are you guys saying the SG2SR's is $90 ???? I see 3 right now on e-bay for $30 or less
Glen, on ebay the second editions seem to be the ones going in the $30 range; the third edition about 3x that amount. I don't know if theres a big diff between the two versions...other than the asking prices.
Hehehe I don't know what the differences are... But I just very carefully taped the cover on my "Rare" 3rd edition that I had been leaving laying around on the floor by the computer for the last 6 years and put it on the Bookshelf.. That goes to show just how things have changed in this hobby in a short amount of time, I bought mine in 2008 for $6 PS: For the info contained in this book I wouldn't pay that kind of money gents I would have to really think about the $30 price tag let alone the $90
Shameless plug, try looking for the book at your local public library. They might not have a copy, and even if they do it might be reference only (no borrowing), but it's worth a shot. The Kobo version also seems to be $10.00
You can also buy the ebook version for about $9 online. I purchased it a year or so ago and it it's great. May not be the same but at a 90% discount, it's well worth it.
