    Default A.I.C

    I got this one from my secret antique store guy, every few months he comes up with a hand full of straight razors for me. The the blade came to me as is. Excellent condition, zero hone wear. Its a very nice piece of steel and a great shaver.
    This razor is a AIC or Allegany Instrument Corp. straight razor. AIC was a manufacturer and distributor of precision surgical equipment. The company was in operation from 1920-1940.
    The scales are linen micarta and the wedge is laminated wood with nickel silver liners and hand domed washers with nickel silver pins.
    Regards,Tony

    If I figure out who your secret antique dealer is, I'll put an end to your reign of terror. Whoever this guy is, he supplies you with some gems.
