New pickup. A Mikado. Koeller and Schmitz
So, I picked up the following for a reasonable price, I think. I also think I'll be able to make it shave ready(as near as I can with what I have... no hones
)
Its a Koeller and Schmitz, however, there are no entries in the SRP database, so I don't know that much about it. Here's a pick as is(I'll clean it up with my limited skill at some point):
It looks like the front has been repinned by a retard. I think I might have been able to do better and all I know about pinning is from the videos.Last edited by Siguy; 10-11-2013 at 11:36 PM.

Looks like it's in pretty good condition. Looking forward to seeing it cleaned and shave ready.

Thanks for the info, but weird. I don't see that when I click on the srpwiki link you provided. Am I missing something? Originally Posted by Martin103

Micado is a model/brand/trade name.
Many companies can have the same.
According to your picture in the first post, the maker was Koeller and Schmitz.Geezer likes this.Alex Ts.
