Thread: The IXL PIPE Shop

Gentlemen,
For your viewing pleasure, a room of Wostenholm treasures to be enjoyed... no need to look forthe lazy beat cop trying to shake you down because you are smoking indoors!

Here is my first one... it was an e- bite special, still needs work my guess is that the razor was stored in the bathroom. the corrosion occurred in the areas not protected by the scales.

This one shocases Traveller's workmanship... my picturs are not as nice as his... 8/8 IXL..

Here are my three Wostenholm's.....the blade-only is my favorite. I can't wait to get a nice set of black & white ebony scales on her! The second one was my very first Wostenholm and the third still needs to be cleaned up.

What! you want to clean up that last one... that worht a bundle on ebay!

Welcome! i need to snap some more pictures because "IXL"!

When I get home in a few weeks I'll have some new razors waiting for me and I think 1 or 2 are Wostenholm's.....so I'll make sure and get them up here as well!

New IXL.....

I have a couple of Pipe razors tucked away here. The "Very Neat" was my first purchase after I decided to go back to a straight razor, and doesn't get used near enough... In all actuality I believe that these Wostenholm razors are the most underrated of the Sheffields.... Shhhhhhhhhh lets keep it that way.....

This is a plain jane 5/8 pipe razor....



And then my 5/8 "Very Neat" Pipe razor, this one is the blade I usually will lend to someone who wants to "Try" a Straight razor... With the slight swayback and a smile to match this is a very forgiving shaver.....

Should this be moved to the Razor Clubs section?

Can anybody explain "IXL"?
