Ok so I am looking at buying a barber's pet
My main questions are....
are these generally good shavers?
Do they hold an edge well?
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

don't have one to comment on
but looks in good shape
Sorry. Never seen one, or shaved with one.
Looks like a nice blade.
Where was it made?
I like the scales, are theye wood?, hard for me to tell.
They're almost identical to a set of scales i made.

I have a little 4/8 Barbers Pet that's an excellent shaver. Mine was sold through Simmon's Hardware and made in Germany. Hone it up and enjoy.
I had a Simmons hardware one as well, but mine had a curve in the spine that made it difficult to hone and strop so I got rid of it. Yours looks like it's in good shape, is it an eBay sale?
If so you might want to take a look at the eBay members list on this forum to see if it's a known razor dealer.
@Outback that looks fantastic the scales are half the reason I wanted the razor at first ...
@Ernie no this is from Larry andro at whipped dog
Alright
I have decided to go ahead and buy the razor the price was good and I like the way it looks ... If it shaves as well as everyone says (found a few other old posts about the brand as well) then I will have a great razor very soon and it's shave ready XD so that's a plus
Rock on.
Cant wait to hear how it shaves.
I'll have to keep an eye open for one.[emoji106]
So I can't find it anywhere ... What would you call the shape of these scales??
I don't really know. Never seen them till now. Except the pair I made. That freaked me out when I seen that one. Thought someone stole mine. [emoji53] [emoji26] [emoji23]
Made me look twice.
