Thread: Straight Razors in the 1897 Sears Roebuck catalog

Thanks for another great look into the history of this great art. Did anybody notice those fork-looking curling irons? Now I see how they got their name.

Thank for posting these pages! Imagine a Belgian combo hone for 75 cents. The rubber razor handles were also called Gutta Percha, and I have been fooled twice on eBay into buying razors with with pressed rubber scales, that had patterns designed to look like genuine stag.
