Hi y'all,
Newbie here
been shaving old straights for over a year now
by now the Frankenstein look has gone
recently picked up an old one covered in rust
looked like a W&B (what I was hoping for...)
turned out to be a JB after restoring...
waiting for the rods I ordered in the US to complete
bevel's there but needs further honing to get shave ready
here's a pic
top to bottom boker edelweiss 6/8- max fassbender 5/8- marx zephyr 1 6/8 - Tuckmar Tee (Kayser Ellison steel) 7/8 - George Brittain 8/8 - unknown with marking .J. and symbol 6/8
regards
Bart

Welcome to SRP, Bart! Nice collection of razors you have so far. I especially like that shoulderless Tuckmar 7/8. Looks like you're diving right in, so hopefully you will stick around for a while. Cheers!

Welcome to SRP. From the looks of your razors, you're no longer in the newbie status! Just curious, are you a native of Belgium? Your use of the word "y'all" caught my eye.

yes I am a native allright but spent some time in Ca (Riverside) in the late 80ies...
But still quite 'newbie' I'd say - only a right hand shaveroutback likes this.
