Thread: Questions on a Boker razor

I picked up this razor on ebay for a very decent price.
It turned out to be much nicer shape than it looked in the photos, and in my photos here, as well.
Is this a good example of Bokers?
What attracted me was the extra hollow grind. I'm looking for a razor that "pings" like they did when as a kid, when the barber would shave around the ears and the back neck.
I spoke with Lynn, this week, about that very thing; maybe he will comment on this razor if he reads this post.
It was dead dull as received. I set the bevel, and stepped through the stones, pastes and strop before using in tonight's shave.
It came to life, but my honing is not good yet, producing a fair shave (including a nicked ear; first time with a pointed blade. LOL). Oh yeah, it didn't ping.
I may send this one out for honing.
Comments please.
