    Default A Hello...

    Hello from Wet Welsh Wales

    I am interested in straight razors and safety although yet to shave with either. After looking into more info I remembered I had this. It belonged to my father. It's kind of a combo straight/safety.

    I have been told elsewhere that there is a seven blade version known as the "seven day razor" allowing a weeks shave without stopping etc. Mine has only three. I think the handle is for stopping but I am sure someone here will hopefully know for sure.

    Thanks

    Anyhow, thought you may like to see:

    That's the funkiest thing I've seen!

    Welcome.
    All types of re-usable razor can come in different numbered sets. Yours, seeing as they are numbered 1 to 3 may be a 3 day set. Do you have it's box?
    Where are you in Wales? I'm in Mumbles.

    If that's not a cool razor, I don't know what is!
    Do you plan to have the blades sharpened for use?

    I have seen Wilkinson's like that on ebay. They came with a case that had an apparatus built in to strop the blades. I am not sure if that is the same type. Looks like it could be honed and stropped if someone knew what they were about. Welcome to SRP.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
