Hi all. Wondering if anyone has seen a Boker like this one ? I have been lurking for a while and have seen similar ones but not the same. It is in not to bad of shape. It had a little surface rust but was easily removed.

Can't say I've seen one, but it is a beauty! Thanks for sharing.
Attachment 74320 Well. I finally found what I thought was the mint condition 6/8 Boker I've always wanted. The auction photos gave me a lot of faith and the price reflected it's condition (so It appeared). Sadly when it arrived my heart sank to see a fingerprint smear tarnished into the otherwise mint golden 'king cutter' logo!! So angry. No chance of polishing it out without killing the gold either. Note to self - never accept blurry auction photos!
For some reason the pictures dont appear on here but if you right click each icon you can bring them up in my photobucket album

Here's my only boker the tang stamp looks to be from the 30's on this one.What i thought was really cool was the etch on the blade: "Bazar DeValasco Manila" a Philipino Boker?
Here is mine, I already posted over in razors forum but would like to add it hear as well.

Those are really nice razors. I have two king cutters. can anyone give some information about them. I wonder how old could they be. One of them has the number 425C

Mine is a H. Boker made for Wolff, Lane & Co. hardware in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. It's dated in between 1869-1895, it's the most comfortable and well balanced razor. Looks like the same model as the pic I quoted.Quote:
