    Default And then!

    I have others, but these three are special! I met a fellow in a antique store; said he had some razors. I got his number and a week or so later I called him. I stopped by and was able to let him know that his collection..yes collection..all clean as if new..beautifully displayed was worth about 10K-30K$ +. His wife was ecstatic!!!!
    He showed me some hones and I told him the market value of them. He then "gave" me these three!" I have lapped them.
    Some really nice folks out there!

    A few more.....

    After seeing all this, I can't imagine what the basement would look like if I kept all the sets of stuff I've used like Kings, Shapton Pro's, Kityama and so many more over the years. Just played with 4 new 1K's and the first question I asked me was, OK where should you put these......lol.

    Have fun,

    Lynn

    I've got a few less than I used to have but here is the current herd, in the cabinet over the kitchen sink. EDIT; my Norton 1k, 4k, 8k aren't in the photo 'cause I keep them in tupperware containers in water. Name:  inventory1.jpg
