Thread: The Boker Brotherhood

On mine you can see just behind/above the beval were the belly is then it gets real thin again. You can feel it too. It is what I call a true full.
Mine looks like the Full in the link and it sings like a canary.

I have rubbed it with a little flitz for about 5 minutes, then honed her up.

i have the same shaver and it is by far the best in my collection......WAY COOL........

Here is my Boker Eagle, which I believe is from the 1924-1935 era.

The first picture is how it was right from eBay. The sales were broken at the pins.

The second picture is after new scales from gssixgun (Glen). I asked for a traditional look to match the Americana look of the blade. I wanted black scales without a lot of visible grain so as not to compete with the etching on the blade and to echo the original black scales. I therefore chose African Blackwood (Senegal Ebony) to which Glen gave a Permalyn finish, a red and black swirled acrylic wedge and all brass hardware.

Of the three straights I have, this is the best looking and the best shaver.

I thank Glen for a fine job.

Just got my first Boker!

A 5/8" Edelweisse with bone scales. Beautiful!

And it shaves like a dream too...!

ewwww! brand new! those look great brother let us know how it shaves.

Hi Doc can I have a "Boker Brotherhood" above my sig now?

Absolutely Brother and welcome! Just add it through you control panel!

Awesome and thank you Doc
any Info on the MOP model I posted Amigo?

Will this get me in? It's the new King Cutter, I got it earlier this year I believe right when they came out, for $99.95 + S&H, thought that it was one of the best deals that I had come across. Can't swear to it but it seems that there is just something about the steel that makes this a sweet shaver.
