    Default Rare Vintage Frederick Reynolds

    This blade looks good but I swear the vendor has put a pic of another blade (faux frameback ?) in his pics.
    Probably just an honest mistake, but it is a bit odd.

    No question in my opinion those are two different blades.

    There are two razors in that ad. Nice razor too, I'm afraid that cleaning that razor and saving that etch would be above my skill set.

    Top one is a wedge. Bottom one is a rattler. Look at his other items and message him. A mistake has been made, IMO

    I almost remember those days. A quart of jack in the black and six pack of coke. I never did figure out what the coke was for.
