Thread: New razor

I picked this up at a little store in Fallon. I paid 30 bucks. Will she sharpen and shave? It says "full ground hollow made in Germany". Any help is appreciated.

Very nice score, no problems I can see. Love the scrollwork on the spine. Hone her up and away you go !!

Good find and I can't see why it would not hone up and shave just fine.

Enjoy, it looks like a nice razor.

Have you made it to virginia city yet?

Pixelfixed, we did. Really cool place! Lots of razors but it was exactly as you guys said. Either it was crazy priced or in really bad shape. I did get some really great BBQ and 12 mini donuts.

Who knew.... I found this right outside of the base I am staying at in Fallon. I figured it was worth 30 bucks. Hopefully it will sharpen up nice. The scales are terribly cheap so I might look into getting new ones. Maybe I could try to do it myself for the first time. We shall see.

Something to keep in mind, she appears to be all original & with a nice box, so think about keeping the scales on her. Higher resale later. There will be plenty of nice blades that come your way that need new scales.

Then again, she's yours & being happy with her is the bottom line.

Thanks for sharing her.

Thanks so much for the advice! I wasn't sure if it was all original or not. If you guys think so I would like to keep it that way.
