    Default 6 out of 7 day set

    I got 6 Ambossmann razors off the ebay and I'm pretty excited about them. At first I wasn't sure I had made a good purchase but after examining the razors, I think once I add new scales to them I'll be glad I got them. They go from Monday through Saturday. They are pretty clean but can use a little polish.
    They seem pretty darn sharp. They shave hair off my leg. I was going to send them out but I'm thinking I'll order some inexpensive Dovo scales and give it a shot. Current scales are plastic and two are broken and so my adventure continues.

    Unless you have pinned razors before, you are better off having someone do it for you. It's a bit tricky to get them neat. It's even trickier to remove bad pins without gouging the scales.
    One time, in band camp, I shaved with a Gold Dollar razor.

    Thanks, Phrank!
    eod7, I haven't pinned razors before but these scales are shot so I'm not too worried about gouging. I was considering using hex screws but I have not decided yet.

    That's the kind of can-do attitude that got us out of caves and into space.

    How very weird. I just bought a Solingen-made razor, "Souvenir of Berlin" on the blade and - ready - "Sunday" on the spine.
