    There are a few antique stores on Cambridge st wembley, Perth, also some on the way into Freo from Mosman Park. I have bought a swaty and a good fine oil stone from there. I think I remember seeing a swaty or two in the Cambridge st antique shops but it has been a long time since looking.

    Cheers

    Too many years have passed since I was in Perth myself. Wish I was back there sometimes though. Been in a bit of a reminiscing slump lately.

    MickR, Perth is a pretty good place to live if i do say so myself! The beaches are great north of the river.

    Perth is nice. I used to visit and pass through when I lived at Geraldton. Still have an Uncle in Perth too.

    In Midland\Guildford (I think arround Bridge st, James st) there are a few antique shops that are worth keeping an eye on. Most of the stuff they have would require a restore but they do have a few razors there.
