    Default My Latest Ebay Find

    I got this razor from the bay and couldn't believe my luck a Flic in great condition.It has a little bit of rust on the tang but apart from that it doesn't look as if it's been honed much if at all £27.00! That's two I've got now.It's a 7/8th like my other one.

    That looks to be in great shape!
    It's amazing what you can get when the maker's not in fashion.

    I know,it's great! but goodness knows why they're not 'cause they're great shavers.There's only a tiny scratch on the other side of the blade apart from the rust on the tang.

    I've never heard of the brand but I'll be on the lookout. That is the only trouble with sharing your lesser know favorites.... breeds competition. Nice piece, thanks for sharing.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Nice find!
    I have a FLIC, too, except mine is stamped "Max Voos" on the other side.

    I would keep an eye out for these little beauties.

    Here's my other Flic sorry about the photo I just did a quick snap.I got this from theinvisibleedge.co.uk my first razor.Shaved with it this morning.I thought at first I would prefer narower blades but now I've been straight razor shaving a wee while,I much prefer the 7/8ths.This one's from the 1920s0r '30s.
