I have 3 vintage razors, that I think will be good razors once they are honed. However I'm a noob and really don't know much. I don't even know how to post pictures. I might work on that this weekend. Anyway, I need to know if any of these are worth getting honed. I try to describe them.
#1 I really like the blade on this one. The handle is nice but seems a little flimsy. The handle a yellowed plastic of some type with a grain with a woman's face with hair standing straight up on top and flowing down the sides the whole length of the handle. The blade I like. It's six inches from tip of blade to tip of tang. The actual blade is 3" by 9/16th". On the tang on one side it says Germany, with an R under it. The other side says Antelope on the blade and Diamond Steel under that. The tang on that side says Antelope, and has a 16 stamped .

#2 This one has a white plastic handle that has fancy carvings on it. Although they were probably molded in when the scales were made. The blade on one side says Trade Mark with an alligator chasing a man with "race" written over their heads. On the tang of the same side it says Faris & Sargus with New York under that. On the end of the tang a # 25 . This one is a little under 6" total with a 2 3/4" blade x 5/8" wide. It has no markings on the other side of the blade.

#3 Plain white plastic handle with grain. Looks like imitation ivory. Blade 6" total. Actual cutting edge is 3" by 9/16". On the left side of the blade I can hardly make out HOLLOW GROUND in big letters. on the tang it has K and a 746 and Keen Kutter. The other side of the tang says Simmond Howe Co., MFRS & Distributors. USA.

All the blades look to be in fine shape except for honing. Are any of these worth getting honed? I hope all because I like them all. Sorry for the long post. Thank You All.
