Not bad....
For the money, I believe THIS is the best straight on ebay if you wanted to find a good shaver that is near Mint......

But if you wanted a WEDGE only, thats a different story... I recently sold a H. Geo. Henry Columbia, PA. Germany 5/8 Wedge with fancy bolsters and it was a NICE wedge.. I shaved with it once before dealing it away for $42 I think
Somebody took my suggestion and gobbled up the UBS straight. If I wasn't totally satisfied with my current "rotation" that would have been a Barber Supply German I would have coveted in the past.
I'd say go for it, mine is a great razor. The one your looking at is in near mint condition and not at that bad of a price.
I like wedges, near wedge, 1/4 hollow. Thanks for the input !!
That bad boy looks about like NOS,
Granted not a Gotta I gotta have but I am not in the market.
Thanks for sharing the love ;)
I am trying to reaquire an old wedge I once had....sometime this year..I just have to procure the right "trade bait"
Thats a awesome wedge. You have good taste.
Found at a Belleair Florida Antique store in 2008. Sent away for refurb...shaved GREAT...Sold to a 'friend" in Seattle....bought it back....traded to a "friend" in NY.... someday it will be back. It is an Oldie...a Hunter & Sons wedge. guy that did the refurb said it was the hardest Sheffield steel he had ever seenQuote:
