Intact scales and the blade is not pitted/rusted to hell? You hit the jackpot
Congrats on a great score. :tu :tu I know ya love this brand and the larger size makes it a rare find.
You know what - I was watching that and had a decent snipe in, but then pulled it as I told myself that Glen is probably all over this so why bother :shrug:? And, I was right ;)
Nice score - looks to be in very good shape. I thought it might be a 7/8 as well, but definitely looks to be a 6/8 at least. Pretty rare to find American blades of these sizes.
My only question is do I get those along with the ducks when they don't do you any good anymore :)?
Man if I keep bequeathing you stuff I might as well adopt ya :roflmaoQuote:

Gugi: it isn't a matter of legaility, it comes down to the fact that I live closer and have a much faster car. Don't worry, I'll leave the ducks. :D

Maybe you just don't know the sweet spot on that razor.Quote:

I had no clue. I have the exact same thistle, with the same style scales, only mine are plain white. Are they that good of a shave?
Sure, where do I sign. You get presents for father's day, I get for my birthday, christmas, new year, 4th of july, festivus etc! I'll call ya daddy too :)Quote:

If you like extreme edges, they are a brand to look for, like most NY brands they are capable of holding onto a wicked sharp edge, I head straight to the Shaptons whenever I hone one...
