There could be worse things to collect lol . 40 is an impressive number brother!! I started a collection of 4/8's - that's my thing. Problem is I love them all, and had to stop because I want to use them all lol. That can become an issue!

I love my 4/8 Boker extra hollow. She's a keeper

Nice spine work. Is it all done with a file or do you use a rotary tool for part of the work?

That was factory done.

I was looking for one for awhile, but then found a p. hospital grelot with a worked spine and it cured my boker lust.

Thanks for the input. I had never seen a Boker with spine work from the factory. I learn something new every day here on SRP. I still want to try my hand at spine work so the photos are still welcomed.

Those are awesome!
I have a similar without worked spine. It takes an incredibly sharp edge.
My favorite razor actually.
That model is the one i keep hoping to find.
Thanks for sharing.

My Favorite Boker:

I've owned and passed on quite a few boker razors as I'm after "the best" shave for me. I've used a large 7/8th spanish point boker down to a 5/8. I finally found my match in this 6/8th spanish point. I don't see this one often and I don't believe it has been posted here yet. Feels good to finally find "the keeper"!

Ive seen a few of them bicycle race bokers they are very nice, yours looks like it was used quite a bit, doesnt look like there a lot of room to hone as the etching will get into the bevel, Look at the pic below that one is barely used.
