Gentlepeople,
here is a place to bask in all the feline glory of the big cats. Pumas, Lions, Tigers, ect. Whatever sleeps in your collection and purrs.
My first offering here is a recent e-bite steal... ~$10.50 just a few weeks ago... she aint big but she is sweet.
as you can see there is still some staining on the toe but not anyplace critical.
Ahhh so my Tiger is of the same family then .. I'll get some pics posted asap , it's still in a bad way but I don't want to risk losing the gold wash .. woohoo
This probably isn't the "lion" that you're referring to, but I'll include this one here anyway. It's a Lion Freres Thielt, a hair over 7/8. One of my many ebay scores (mistakes?). The seller neglected to mention the significant warping of the blade :cry: . And, as with all my straights, it is a before picture (presuming I'll get to the after).
Here's the other side of the tang. It is at least an interesting razor.
Here's my Tiger to add to the feline collection
Looks very much like a Puma.
Garry that is a nice tiger... but you are going to lose a lot of the gold when you restore it.
Yeah , a lot of the wash is off .. I'm in two minds whether to try and take the little black pits out or just leave them . I've had the razor for about 2yrs in the 'to do' box . It honed up nice last night but I had to tape the spine , theres a lot of hone wear near the toe .. I might just give the scales a good clean and see what a few polishes with 'peek ' ( uk version of Maas ) does to the metal ..
Kees .. I think they're made by the same company , it was the resemblance that caught my eye last Saturday night , especially with some of the pums which say 'best puma steel '
does a snake qualify? How about a W.H. Morley & Sons Rattler.
Nice snake but that would be better in a menagerie. I had thought about setting one up as a place to put the dancing bears, deer and what i think is a bee... feel free to make such a room!
6/8 Puma # 1938
Reddobie nice blade... a shame you lost your condom
That sure is a fine looking razor ...........
Ok surely someone else has a Tiger -- I'm curious about mine and would like some info on them ..
Garry
Not a tiger in sight here but how about another Puma?
the rest of the puma 39 pictures.
Grrrrrrr... Apparently my Italian friend had to break the seal on the cage for this one.

that is such a nice looking blade. thanks
6/8ths Puma Gold:
one of the nicest pumas I have seen!!!!!
Got to love those 6/8ths Pumas. Nice razor, Ray.
This one just arrived yesterday. I purchased it from Manyrazor.de . I've purchased several str8's from Manny and they are all in execellent shape high quality and at a fair price. He also sells on Ebay. I wish I had a source as good as his! (the pics are Manfred's)
My goodness .. thats amazing .
I've also bought a few razors from Manyrazor but only on ebay
nice purchase
:tu Garry
Hmmmm...I think I like this cat better....
I think this was possibly made in a Cathouse :w
Oooooh nooooooo I did it again... bought another razor...

I hope the pitting around the heel isnt too bad but other than that it looks great..
I will probably get it in the mail next week or so..

PUMA, "Puma Special" 88 5/8 acquired from firebox (Martin)
RayG I now have a replacement for the PUMA 89 6/8 that I sent your way last year!
does the 1935 stands for model # or the year it was made?
My own Puma Gold 6/8 with fig wood handle. And a Nr. 52 Puma with mammoth ivory. One with birchwood and one with amboina.
I love Pumas :D

Nice looking hardware, I might have to move some Ducks to acquire a few more of these!

hey guy I don't want to be a pain but could we also at least post a pic in here as well I don't want to see the clubs turn into a bunch of links to the wiki. It would defeat the purpose of the clubs. Thanks
