I was going to post a pic, but there were guys still bidding , massive hone wear like it was ground on a wheel or something. Not quite as awesome as the one above , but on its way. I am curious what that one went for , anyone see that?

I saw that one & just laughed. I usually look at the bidders & they will be like a single or double digit feedback so they are usually newbies.

Here's a good one:

NOS Thiers Issard Medaille Argi 69 Straight Razor





NOS means new, old stock, not reground! You can see the previous hone wear just in front of the stabilizer on both sides. If you can't see them here, copy that title & search for it. It had been pitted & they reground it & said it is NOS.

The seller of this razor clearly states that it has deep pitting. That said definitely not reground.

My bad. I thought I could see hone wear.

Here's some creative pinning that might qualify for the Hall of Shame.

Just to play "devil's advocate" for a moment, I'd like to offer some perspective:

What if they tried to repin them, despite a complete lack of ability to do so?? They could have horribly cracked those fancy, vintage scales. Seems like this person was concerned more with making the pieces more intact, rather than in pieces, probably makes for better shipping circumstances.

Just my $0.02.

The scales do look nice.

Bwahahahaha! I cant tell if this guy is serious, or making fun!
