Love this thread! I have two Clauss razors and am considering collecting them. ;)
I sold my Clauss 15/16 about a month ago. It was an incredible shaver but just didn't get the action it deserved. The guy who bought it emailed me and said "The razor showed up but I have a problem with it". Naturally I crapped my pants as I would hate to sell something to someone and have them turn out unhappy... I kept reading and it said "it's the nicest razor i own now". I'm glad that was his problem!
What the heck, I'll throw another in. Yes, this one is a good shaver.

Here is mine....she is my first, and only (but then again I am only 7 shaves deep so far!)

Barber's Special. Restored in maroon linen micarta. Excellent shaver.
Here is my newly acquired Clauss Razor

I found this one yesterday at a local antique store. Being from Ohio, I found it appealing. I took it home and honed and stropped it. I used it this morning and the result was one of the best BBS shaves I have had! There is some wear on the covered tang.

Just picked this one up. Had to hurry up and repin it so I could take a photo. Haven't seen one with an Ivoroide etch before so figured post it here. Took me awhile to figure out what it says.

Been a while since anyone came out of the Clauss-et.
I picked one up at an antique store. Needs a bit of polishing, after I knock the rust off. Anyone have a number stamped in the tail like this?
