Very nice freebird! I love the shoulderless blades!
A Robeson #1601 White King
come on gentlemen step right up, step right up. A troubling situation has arrived in the razor club and that is the use of thumbnail pictures. I know that some of you old timers still remember when the razor clubs were a thing of beauty! with large glossy pictures of razors and we viewed until our hearts content. but those days are through it would seem. I beseech all the members of the razor clubs to take the poll in the general section and vote to restore large pictures to our beloved razor clubs. It is up to us gent and together we can restore these clubs to there former glory!!!!!!

I'm still working on that set and wanted to keep this alive and well :D
I have a 3 or 4 Robeson razors, This is my favorite. I took this in to my barbershop the other day and the barbers could hardly wait to try it out. A couple of guys in the the chairs were lucky enough to have this used for their trims.
Hey,
This hammered tang Robeson just came in the mail fresh from ebay.

The handle is busted, so it will go on the rescale list. It's extremely sharp!
I was looking at that one as well. Just didn't go for the shallow blade much. Lucky the scales is are easy to refit :D

Here's my first hammered tang Robeson. I still need to hone it up, as you can see in one of the pics. I managed to preserve the "razor that fits your face", but it was hard to get a photo of it!

Edit: it honed up like a dream, I shouldn't be surprised.
