Hi, I just cam into possestion 6 straight razors
So the title says it all. Was at an estate sale and picked up a locked wood box for 10$ (Wasn't even locked! has a weird mechanism on it lol!) Perfecto Products box! I did a little research and this is what sales people would walk around carrying their straight razors in!
Basically 4 of the are EASILY restorable with the original (I believe original !) scales dirty with with some tarnish on the metal on scales. The blades have a small amount of patina/rust ( VERY little if any pitting).
The 4 that are restorable
1. S. R. Droescher/ Garwood N.J / Made in Germany
Blue Diamond 106
2. TWO Pear Duck/dubl duck / Solingen-Germany
One square point Goldedge
One round point Goldedge
The gold is worn off on ~65%
4. Giesen & Forsthoff/ Solingen
I don't shave because I have a baby face at 24 years old, so that brings me to my next qustion!!!!! Let me rephrase my question then!! Are these razors like the 75++ $ razors I am seeing on ebay? Ill put some pics up in a little bit.
The 2 razors that are in bad shap both have damage to the scales and VERY HEAVY RUSTING to th epoint some of the sharp edge is eaten away.
1 is a dubl duck SATIN EDGE
1 is a eicker & sohne biedermeier blade is slightly less rust but still unsalvagable.
