    Default Proper, period correct Thrust Washers on Amazon? No way!!?? Way!!! ;) :)

    Search Amazon: B01CC233AC

    Picked these up and they are the real deal... 0.250" x 0.070" x 0.01" (6.35mm x 1.78mm x 0.254 mm) and they work really, really, really well!! You can barely discern the gap compared to thicker washers and blade-alignment came together in a snap!!

    The pic is a United Cutlery "Mag-Nam" (??) 11/16" Razor I just finished pinning using these washers and, no matter how I angled the shot you can't see the washers.

    If you are looking for the Old School, wider, flatter washers then these Thrust Washers are the real deal!!

    Price is a tad high. I'll keep making my own with shim stock, a drill bit, and a paper punch. They're not as pretty but they work just fine.

    Heh. Most of the ones I pull out of older razors aren't pretty! Ragged edges is period-accurate.

    I did not realize that I was doing such a good job while being so cheap!
