$5 worth of Flea Market Goodness!

Bought this razor for $5 at the local flea market. Germania Cutlery, The Oxford Razor.

Scales are broken. Surprisingly, there was no inner washer.

Blade is pretty clean. 20 or 30 minutes with some Mothers yielded this.

Got some Birdseye Maple that will make beautiful scales.

Needs a honing.

Nice Birdseye Maple. Are you treating it with anything like Tung Oil?

Nice pickup. Cleaned up Beautifully and those scales....Nice

Thanks guys!
Kindestcut, I finished the scales in CA(cyanoacrylate, ie; super glue).

I have 1 of these also no as good looking as yours but they are a very nice shaver

Substance, thanks for the reply. I look forward to shaving with it.

And another Razor is saved from an ugly ending...to do what it was meant to do for many more years..
Well done...

Smooth Shaving...

Thanks. And I think smooth shaving is apropos. Honed it up today. Took a bevel and a shave ready edge really quickly and easily. I think I'm going to enjoy the shave tonight(night shaver).

Very nice!
