    Jake, these look alot like my Sta-Sharp, I've never used a Genco, are they similar shavers?

    Jake,

    soon i'll be sending my razors to you.

    You did a marvelous job smoothing out that honewear and bringing this beauty back to life!

    I think I have it figured out, I need to try one of these out and the best way to do it is to convince Max to sell me his?

    I've never had a Sta-Sharp, so I wouldn't know.

    I sure several American brands were just different stamps on the same steel, so it's probably a possibility that they are similar - if not the same.

    Interesting thought, I'm sure someone who has used both will provide us with an answer. Good looking piece though, nice work.

    Nice job there Jake. Looks a great example of that model.

    Really nice work... They are really sharp shavers...


    Easy Aces = American Steel
    Sta-Sharp = Solingen steel

    Both very good razors, both super hollows, but not quite the same....

    The Sta-sharps and the Craftsman razors were made by either ERN or Kholler (*sp)
