    Nice score on that Pacific welcome to the SSS

    On the "Master" question above I am NOT positive but I think it is part of the Barber series a pic would be great...

    You're right, It wasn't. I don't believe it's a Shumate, I can't make out the stamp. It looks like a triangle or maybe an open razor to the left of a C or G*** Cu**** Inc. USA. Cobo, Gebo, Geba Cutlery... I don't know, whatever it is it's toast. It was also plated. I don't suppose a Shumate Box will get me in the club lol.

    It might be Geneva Cutlery (Genco) post some pics to show what you've done

    Picked up this Shumate "Barber" just last weekend. Cleaned it up some and honed her up. Turns out to be a mighty fine shaver (as you all already know)

    Default As close as I will get to a 7 Day Set

    To limit my RAD, I have been focusing on US made razors. Shumates seem to be available, affordable, restoreable and turn into great shavers.

    Very nice. Never say never. Ya' might just walk into a shop some day and find a pristine seven day set for a song. Stranger things have happened, I'm sure.
