Thread: Qustionable & poor quality razors on Ebay

Many people have been buying questionable or poor quality Straight Razors off of Ebay simply because they have had nothing to help them choose.

Here is my private list of Ebay sellers that are offering, in my opinion, poor quality or questionable quality Straight Razors. If anyone can supply me with other Ebay sellers of same then I will add them to this list.

Poor quality means that the razors are either poorly ground, warped from poor heat treating or made from a steel that cannot be honed as fine as other quality razors and will not retain a shaving edge or the shaving edge is "coarse" as in sandpaper.

This list was compiled from personal experience and the comments from others on the various straight razor web sites. It is not a complete list.
