    Welcome back, If I recall correctly your handle used to be "Traveler" or "Traveller" and you used to buy all the big Wade & Butchers off Ebay! Plus you found a case of NOS W&B FBU's somewhere in South America. You also collect shotguns and had a resort in Belize. Also, you had some molds of ornate razor scales made and produced a few of those.

    How's my memory?

    Your memory is great.I have sold most of the shotguns,I am 76 years old now so I had kind of slowed down on the shooting.The razors I bought were from a jewler and mens Haberdashery in Petropolis Brazil.That also did barbering and made high class jewelry.I still have most of those old Wade and Butchers there are around 3 styles if I remember most are those great big ones with the barbers notch in as new condition except a lot had the scales removed.There was also a box of new bresduck Double ducks 8/8 or 7/8 I cant remember exactly ,they were new.I sold 3 of them to an airline pilot in Hong Kong.I am going to go through all of this over the coming year.Also 3ea 1917 Smith and Wesson 45 cal revolvers (New)They wouldnt let me bring those to the USA,So I left them down there with my agent.Nice to hear from you again.I always admired your opinion and comments,as most of the guys here.Best regards, Gary

    4000??!!!! Did you type that right, or did your zero key stick a little bit there? If you typed that right, I have to reiterate what others of already said - a few pics now and then would be nice. As someone with a very modest shave den, I live vicariously thru those on this forum who share pics from their den. I hope I can look forward to a pic or two from yours sometime.
