    I've got to throw my Robeson 'Robeson's Best' into the mix. She's a nice shoulderless 7/8 and I got it in this condition. Didn't want or need to restore it, I basically stropped it and she was ready to go. I've since re-honed it once and it is one wicked shaver. For a 100+ year old blade (I understand that the 'best' razors were from 1896-1900 only) she is in excellent condition.

    The pic is from an SOTD post I put up for her.

    Enjoy!!

    Picked this up for $5. Shuredge 35-H-350. A litte on the rustique side but another fantastic shaver none the less.

    I don't own a Robeson Razor. I do own and have owned several more Robeson pocket knives over the years. There is a gent in Alabama that is a friend of mine and he LOVES Robeson stuff. Over the years he has pretty much devoted all of his collecting toward Robeson and Terrier stuff. He has some beautiful knives and razors posted at his website
    RobesonsRme.com

    The name pretty much says it all. Drop by and take a peek at Charlie's pretties.

    I sent him two shave ready razors the other day to play with after he asked about shaving with a straight. He's been DE shaving for a while. SO far he's having no fun learning, but I have faith that he'll figure it out. LOL I'm hoping he'll get past the learning curve and use one or two of his lesser Robesons to shave with.

    This is a razor that I have cleaned up and re-scaled. The blade measures just under one inch and had some rust & pitting issues. The rust is gone but the pitting remains as I didn't want to get too aggressive with sanding. The scales are Ebony that have been sealed with True Oil and finished with multiple coats of Renaissance Wax.
