Thread: Speculation as to excessive hone wear

Good point. Very true about the price of razors years ago. Everyone probably honed with their thumb or finger on the spine for stability and destroyed same. Pricewise, in the 60's I shopped in a five & dime store run by Mennonite ladies. I asked if they had any straightrazors . The lady looked on a top shelf and found one. It was an Imperial Extra Hollow Ground NOS. Price on the coffin box was $3.00 and that's what she charged me.
