This one looks interesting. Not the hall of shame.

I saw that too Tim. I imagine W&B made a microtome to compete with others?

I Shared these pics a while ago. It might be a W&B microtome as well, but it might also be a full or near wedge. My eyesight won’t let me tell the difference.

I'm wondering about that rainbow discoloration on the blade. Hope the blade wasn't overheated on a buffer.

I wonder that about many of the over polished blades I see by some who think they can restore. I'm sure many razors are ruined & are better off looking old like they did before someone got their hands on 'em.

Does this look NOS to you? Gold King Japanese straight?

No from my standpoint!

not to me - there is a crack in the scales too which likley means its been handled quite a bit, not evidence of NOS

NOS-New Old Stock meaning old but never used, still new. I see hone marks on it. I've saw another one on there recently by the same seller and the razor had hone marks on it. They also had it listed NOS.
