Thread: Oh boy. lookey there! Royal Windsor!

Please tell me some one here scored this beautiful razor.
I once was trusted enough to put one of those on the stones and then shave. Of course it needed more than just a touch up and i wasnt about to go further than that.

I trust you enough to tell you who scored that razor.

Nice to make your acquaintance Trillium

Got it!. Thanks though.
To tell you the truth even if it was in your search at the time it wouldn't have helped.
The seller made no indication that the razor was anything other than a Wade & Butcher so you wouldn't have even got an alert.....lol

We've all either witnessed or heard stories of people who have no idea what they're selling....and someone gets a "great deal"......but I personally haven't seen something this rare be handled like this before.

Holy crap....another Unicorn, and this one looks ground more like mine (edit: nope, this is the grind like ProfChaos, with the notch).... - so I IIRC, think that will be a total of 5 that have now been found - Void said he knew of 4. I know ProfChaos has one, and I've got this one, and now you've landed a White Whale! Congrats Cheetah!

edit again: so it's 3 that are known, not 4, so this will be the 4th find of this razor, and the one with the misspelled stamp, which makes it even more rare! Wow! What journey did this elusive beast take, will we ever see another one again?

Wow and Yikes!

Score!!!! Goal!!!! :-)

Took you long enough to weigh-in, Phrank!

I don't know who ProfChaos hopefully I will meet him some day.

It seems like we need to Create 2 new sub groups Phrank. We still need a GB and Anchor and Cross Sub group (since 2015 when we were originally talking about it) and apparently we need a W&B Ottoman Sub Club (but with a way more clevererer name).

As Tom said, I figured that you would have weighed in earlier....lol Totally trying to draw all of my favorities out of the wood works. Phrank I had to dig deep with the SRP coffers to find the story behind yours. That save is something short of turning wine back into water.

I'm waiting for Void Monster to give his "virtual blessings" as well...lol but I'll take what I can get at this point....lol. Great to see a few familiar faces around here.

Phrank I still feel like you have the collection to beat.

ProfChaos is a member at the "other" shaving web forum - I'd messaged him about selling his Ottoman, wait, yes, yup, I can still hear his laughter echoing through the years......lol!

I must admit, I'm disappointed in myself for not spotting that Ottoman, I would've fought hard for that, but if I'd have known you were going for it, would've backed off, as Monty Python reminds us, "I've already got one", but alas, that battle never happened, to the unfortunate wallet of the seller...lol.

Yes, couple a new subforums that would have the maximum of 5 or 6 posts! lol...They are such rare razors, sheesh, would almost be every post would be a necro post! Rise from the Dead! lol

You'd probably seen this, an interesting find from a couple of years ago, not a monster blade, approx 7/8, wonder how fat it was in it's youth.....but there are a few GB's out there, but Ottoman's, crikey, that forum would be barren methinks.

This GB has the additional French text, Void did mention something about this variant, for the life of me can't find it now.
