    I have one of these which I bought in simliar condition and restored, its one of my favourite razors and one of the best shavers I own! I love W&B, they really did know how to handle steel!

    Good luck and keep us posted!

    Yes, she did find a nice one.

    Will be sad it won't be joining the others, I had just completed my first 3 week set of W&B's and this one would have been a good start on the Week 4 set.

    I though you didn't like wedges. I'm a little confused but I bet Val will have it shiny and beautifully scaled for you in no time.
    It's not what you know, it's who you take fishing!

    What a curse be a dull razor; what a prideful comfort a sharp one

    Yes, that was true.

    Then I realized it was ridiculous to compare them to hollows, they're different beasts, and there are different things to appreciate about them.

    LOL - I guess, as a straight razor user, I'm growing to appreciate all the fine diversity that these old blades have to offer. Love the things now....
