    Default My best ebay score yet

    I picked up this Morris round tip Imp from ebay. It looked good online but when it came today...WOW was I surprised. What I had thought may have been rust was just gunk and fingerprints. It does have some very slight patina on the blade I cleaned it up and this is what I have.

    I think it may be NOS? Any thoughts?

    I have a NOS Red Imp by Case that I used for the second time today. I worked it a bit on a Coti and then stropped it up really well. What a wonderful shaver. I hope you enjoy your razor as much as I enjoyed mine.

    That is really cool! I would be willing to bet that the only roundpoint Imps were from Morris! I have not seen a Case or Ludo in that configuration.
    Has anyone?

    I have a 132, 133 case imp that are great shavers. This one feels more hefty.

    Speckey,

    I think I seem some internal cracks in the blade. I'd hate for you to get injured when they erupt to the surface. Send it to me right away so that I can dispose of that razor (in my own stash) safely!

    Gorgeous Imp. Congrats!

    Yes those red imps are truly wonderful shavers and that's a very nice sample.
