I guess I don't know razors....

Okay, saw this today

vintage john primable straight razor blue grass - eBay (item 120446645234 end time Jul-17-09 14:13:06 PDT)

I contact seller to let him know description is wrong, blade is shot. just informative, figured he had no idea anything about razors. check out his reply to me

"i have over 700 razors , i know them pretty good and fyi if i dont sell it no big deal. i will lay it up with the rest of them they dont eat nothing, kenny"

apparently because he has so many razors he knows them. well maybe they're all worse than this.

Taint nothin wrong with that blade! Shiiit, I shaved with worse.;):D

This is his description of the razor:

This is an old john primable straight razor, it is the blue grass and is in good shape, i see no cracks in the handle and it is very tight, it has blak bake lite handles. the blade has blue grass on it and it has been sharpened some, it comes with the orginal box and the box is in excl cond for the age it is . this razor sold new for 3.00, it has john primble stamped on the blade. this razor came out of a old razor collection and was laid up for several years.

Given the condition of the razor, with half of the blade busted off, I wonder how has it "been sharpened some?"

The guy is either confused, a moron, or a liar.

Well, "some" of the blade has been honed to hell, while the heel has been formed into a bottle/can opener shape. You'll need a beer mid-shave I reckon.

I hope all his razors are in such good shape and he shaves with them.:medvl:

Maybe it was "sharpened some" with a honing rod for kitchen knives...

There is one more option, He could be all 3. I've seen a few Antiquers here who just ain't all there. The really sorry thing is they still sell enough to stay around.

Ya, but there's free shipping guys! ;)

It sold for 50.00 USD?
He must have bid on it by himself, LOL

In all honesty, let's be fair. At some time that thing has been honed. It does appear to have good scales, for all we know they are tight and they are black.
It is in good condition,compared to what? Have to see what he is comparing it to.
And the picture is good enough to see the hone wear.

Now am I being too nice to the poor misguided soul.

Thats what I was gonna say. I've seen many people that were a combination of all three, and this guy sounds like one of those gems.

too much pressure! :)

steve you cracked me up!!!

I think many sellers are 2. because common sense tells you that a razor should have a straight, or at least smooth continuous edge. also that it cant' have something like that heel sticking out further to gouge your face. I wonder if these crap blades just flow in a circle between the morons, cause I can't see any of us buying them.

Well its a good thing they dont eat much, 'cause Kenny is goin' ta have this one around for quite some time. Looks like its the one thats been eaten.

This dude doesn't know about description of the condition straight razor's. he's rest of blades are in excellent condition looks like poor in our scale.gl to him

Someone needs to send a link to this to the seller

:rofl2: That is just plain FUNNY!!!! :roflmao



btw: I am NOT the Kenny selling (attempting to sell) this fine instrument!!!

:deadhorse: Holy s...! Just re-read this post. Missed the part of 700+ razors! Either he never throws away his disposables or he has SERIOUS RAD!!!!
