    Default Two New Flea Market Finds

    Went over to the Covered Bridge Festival in Western Central Indiana today & picked up A Union Cutlery "SPIKE" & a F.W. Engels "Perfect Temper" The Perfect Temper is in really nice shape & the Spike just needs a little work. Not real "puter" savy So will get my daughter to put up some Pics.

    Slawman!

    Two good, well known brands there that should make mighty fine shavers for you. Would love to see pics as we here at SRP love pics. Also keep us posted on your progress cleaning them up. If you have never honed a straight razor might I suggest sending to a reputable member listed under 'Member Services' in the SRP Classifieds. When first starting out I tried to hone my own razors, got tired of shaving with what felt like sandpaper............
