Thread: Custom Bismarck 6/8 Round Point w/24mm Silver Tip Badger brush + Bonus

I'm still thinning the herd. This would make a nice combo for a beginner; (More pics upon request)

A custom (by me) 6/8 round point Bismarck with top and bottom jimps, front of tang reads Bismarck, back of tang reads Made in Germany & Solingen, monkey tail reads Registered. Blade is in very good condition, just some very light, hard to see pitting & staining. The scales are Yellow Acrylic with Ivory Acrylic spacer, pins are Nickel/Silver, washers are Stainless Steel. Inlay was transferred from old (warped) scales. Razor was rehoned on select Coticule, translucent Arkansas and shave tested before listing and is shave ready by my standards, yours may vary.

Brush is a WD 24mm Silver Tip Badger knot installed in a Walnut handled turned by me. Knot has already been treated with both Oxy Clean & shampoo and left out in the air for months to help rid animal smell common with badger hair brushes. Wood was stained with Min Wax Natural stain then sealed with Min Wax Polyurethane.

Bonus: a tube of hard to find Coate's Superior Lime Shaving Cream.

Price for this combo is $100 shipped Priority Mail via USPS in CONUS. For International shipping please email or PM location for actual shipping cost.

Money back guarantee if not satisfied.

Nice set from a great guy!!

Looks like a fantastic starter set for a beginner.

I forgot to add pic of Coate's Shave Cream when I listed the razor and brush. It is unused, I did unscrew the cap to make sure it was still creamy and not hard.

Real pretty. I'm interested!

What do you mean "custom by me"? is it assembled from other broken razors?

No, it wasn't assembled from other broken razors. The original scales were warped when I acquired the razor several years ago so I made new scales for it. The inlay was on the original scales and I thought it was only proper to transferred it to the new scales. I do my own restores, customs, repair work and honing, been doing it for the past 8 years.
