    Default Current Razor Manufacturers the new Vintage

    I know vintage is "in" but won't the current small makers like Aust, Wacker and Revisor be rarer 10 years from now? These are all small cottage shops that don't produce any where near the numbers that Vintage makers and they are still made on vintage equipment.

    Just curious what people thought. I can find dozens of US vintage just driving to local shops near my home. Yet I rarely see these makers on the second hand market even on specialized forums and eBay.

    Most of the razors you are seeing are branded by the sellers who were probably small shops and hardware and dry goods stores. Probably a handful of makers made them relative to the sellers. I don't think rarity affects what they might be worth. Price seems to go according to quality and brand of the year unless you are talking a razor owned by someone of note or the collectors who look for certain scales.
