    Default Seller Humor - And an Odd W&B

    This is a photo of the outside of a box I received from a bay seller. It contains a W&B but what got my attention was the drawing on the outside under the address. I guess folks in some parts of the country see it as a good idea to include drawings of joints on things going to Colorado - the new laws here allowing recreational pot use I guess. Looking at how he drew a line up to my name and address I guess he was "indulging" at the time... But I guess it could also be a carrot that someone got too close to a flame and it's smoking... but I doubt it. Still kinda funny.

    ...and here's a picture of the W&B - some serious tapering from honing over the years but for the low price paid it's something that can be ground down to a useable razor (though a bit more narrow). I'm thinking a serious smile can be honed onto it to save a bunch more metal. Too bad it's not all still the same width as the heel!

    It will be interesting to see how that turns out. As far as the pot thing, I'm in Washington, so I feel your pain. I'm all for letting people enjoy themselves, but why do some of them think I want to know about it?
    The older I get the more I realize how little I actually know.

    Well, ....looking at the razor, it could be a rendition of a smoking turd
    sorry!

    I rest my case.

    If you take the picture with the heel further away it may give us the illusion of no tapering! Lol

    To be fair, I just took delivery on this one for a friend - but it seems the pics in the auction were less than clear so it was a gamble anyway. I'm thinking the blade will wind up with a big smile and the heel with get a "haircut". As far as the seller, it takes all types, and it seems he's intrigued by the new law here. Just glad I'm retired! It would be a bit odd getting a package with that on it given what I did for a living. ...though the mental picture Sharptonn has is kinda funny too!
