Is there anybody out there besides me? Not the prettiest things in the world but they just appeal to me.

Both of these are in process. The one on the left is a Master Barber model. The other one is a no-name.
I have one with nice celluloid scales that are black alternating with faux mother of pearl. That one is being honed right now.
I also have a Blue Steel model coming from the bay.
Dixie's seem to be plentiful and make decent shavers.

I have a couple of Dixies! Does that make a collection? :D

WOW! Those are beautiful! Those custom scales are amazing!
A little fancier than most Dixies, the top one is all original with 'cracked corn' celluloid. The bottom one found a home in the 'Master Barber' scales. They are from an unknown German razor. Lots of makers put Master Barber on Razors, I think!
The only one that I had I got rid of, but it was a fantastic shaver. Here is what it looked like.

I can't say that I collect them, but I do have a couple of them. I bought the first one because Union city is just outside Atlanta where I live and thought it might be neat to have one. Turns out it is one of my favorite shavers and holds and edge like nobodies business.
Good choice and happy shaves to you.
