    Default My Wilbert Army special - restored and shave ready.. First use today, fathers day

    Hi all,

    Attached are a few pics of my Wilbert and Old Spice mug I got for fathers day.

    Nun2sharp honed this up for me after I cleaned it all up, and I'm ready to give it a shot this morning.

    These are the best pics I could get of them both.

    Enjoy!!!

    p.s. Happy fathers day to all you fathers!!

    No really, I am the worlds worst photographer. I don't know which is worse, me or my camera.

    I brought another one home tonite to see if it was me or the camera. I'm not betting on the camera!!!

    Didn't you notice the 'garage' theme??? I had the car, the vise, the crescent... I mean really, man, I was trying to be a good 'artist'. I just kinda suck at it, heheheh. But I'm having fun, so there ya have it..

    Mike, that's really handsome. I've not had a branded Wilbert, but I read that Wilbert made the blades for Henry Sears & Sons 1865 (brand name, not year). I've handled 2 of the Sears, and can't part with either even though neither has any of my normal preferences. Excellent shavers. One is marked 'Made in Prussia'. I'm betting that blade shaves as least as good as it looks & will put many smiles on your face. Enjoy!

    I was just Kidding, Mike! I think the pics are fine! We appreciate anything creative as long as it includes a cool razor! You should see all the things others(myself included) have done here!I use a crescent wrench far too often, so I can relate! Have fun! Tom
