Nice Luis, Very Nice!!

If my grandson likes his 'straight' as much as your son likes his, I'll have to get him a small brush for his birthday along with the usual stack of $1.00 bills!! (He thinks he's a Millionaire)!

Here's his razor next to a 6/8 Genco that was recently given to me This what it looked like before I reworked it.

I bought it for $5 delivered from China. It was advertised as 'a straight razor knife'. I figured for that amount of money including shipping I could afford to see what happened.



It should fit nicely in his 5 year old hand!

Very nice indeed. He's one lucky little lad.

Hi Roy

You are a cool grandfather, I wish we could get our razors for 5 dollars. It is ridiculous how expensive they have become. I plan to give my son a head start. He can my razors, I hope he likes Sheffield's because I am a fan.

Luis

Nice job ... for a nice start.

Razors used to cost less than $5 but it was long ago!!! Here's a picture of a coffin case that held a razor sold here in my city! $2.50 Stamped/printed right there in plain site!

Man, that was a lot of money back then!



Damn! There I go again, Hijacking my own thread!!!

The good old days. By the way, I love the box. Very cool.

'Makes me smile. Cudarunner has a sense about these things that doesn't miss. You should see his gift of a monster Friodur to his son, followed by the most striking scale work I've seen by the honorable sixgunner.
