New Boker
I just paid the man $50 for this bad boy. Not shave ready and has some spotting on the blade but I think it's a nice razor and 50 was a fair price. I asked for a better picture of the markings so I could date it. What is everyone's take?

I think that it isa a reputable brand and in fair condition, alway nice to add one like that to a collection. Oddly enough with as many razors as I have in my collection there is not a single Boker. Happy shaving

Looks like a good choice from what I can see. Minimal hone wear and appears to be an easy
polish, hone and enjoy.Bob

From what I can tell i would guess it's the 1947-1974 "tree".

I have yet to have a bad Boker. Currently own about ten.
In my experience all hone and hold an edge well. The only exception was the Friodur . It was a bugger to get honed, but it holds an edge like a miser holding on to his wallet!
You should be very happy with this one. Enjoy it!
