Thanks.
I'll have to put some thought in to which ones I'm going to sell, but I'll keep what you said in mind.

Wotup Doc. They're American Desert Ironwood and they smell as bad as burning buffalo horn when you sand them but purtty enough. Thanx

Thanked: 462 My First Straight Razor
It turns out that I get to have W & B as my first genuine straight razor (I have been shaving with a shavette until now). I received this beauty today in the mail from a SRP member. Haven't shaved with it as yet. Will be butchering the whiskers tomorrow morning

Thanked: 801 My Collection for the Butcher Shop
1st razor has an 8/8 Blade with the original bulleye brass collars. The scales are a black horn. This razor is up there with my best shavers.
2nd razor has a 5/8 blade and the scales are picked bone.
3rd razor has a 9/16 blade and what is unusual about this is that it has an "improved tang" which is actually longer than a normal tang.
4th razor has a 5/8 blade and the scales are polished Giraffe bone and were made by Robert Williams. The escutcheon plate is hammered brass.
5th razor has a 6/8 blade and the scales are believed to be of Tortoise (dark brown molted or spotted over a goldish color) The scales also have three silver inlays.
6th razor is identical to razor #1 but not nearly as nice. The collars don't match and there is a crack near the heal of the blade which is about 3/4" long.
7th razor has a 6/8 blade. The scales are made of ivory and possibly the tang. I have not tested the tang.Cove5440 likes this.if anything has been abnormal for a long enough period it then becomes normal.
