    Hopefully Mycarver will jump in, but the blade was in pretty good shape when I found it. I don't think the razor had been used much.

    Agreed - looks brand new...is it a 5/8 or 6/8?

    I believe 6/8, but never actually measured it.
    There is a picture of this razor in my photo album pre-restore. The picture was taken shortly after I found it this summer.

    Yes, you're right, that Pipe was in pristine condition, you have some other really nice blades there to!

    Anyhow, congratulations on the Pipe, that is a center-piece in any collection in my opinion, completely fascinating piece of history.

    Love that semi translucent horn. Nothing looks more handsome on a vintage razor I think
