    Default Morley Razor Snag

    Just received my Morley I snagged off Ebay. For all of you that are wondering... $2.50 with $3 shipping!!! I wouldn't believe it except I'm holding it. Take a look and let me know what you think. I'll post more once it's finished up. Most of it is polished up, but it still needs some finishing touches.

    Nice grab at a super price.Aside from a pivot pin scale crack(which maybe can be stabilized with super glue)and a little toe wear,it should make a nice little shaver.It seems sometimes buyers are so intent on getting the "HOT" or popular razors,that some decent ones slip thru the cracks.

    Thanks Alan. It was pretty nice to get this one at that price. That crack will be just fine (a little super glue, a small bit of 2000 grit sandpaper, and a new pin with washer should take care of it). I'll see if I can't hone it up today a give it a shave and let you know how it goes. And who says you have to snipe on ebay to get anything good .

    Morleys are very good razors. Even if you have to re-scale it, you got a deal!

    Finally! Here's the results. After some light sanding and buffing, here it is. Shaves really NICE, too. Had two shaves with it so far, and it has worked better then my other Morley that I started with.
