Thread: Romo 8/8

Dose anyone know anything about this razor. I would also like to replace the handle do to the crack around the pivot. Anyone have any advice on how to inlay the solgen emblem into a new set of scails.

there are some posts on transferring the inlay http://straightrazorpalace.com/works...-gssixgun.html

Not sure about anything other than the asking price, I would pass for that. Tc

Those look like arbitrary antique store prices

I mean this is from Rosenbaum & Mogal (New York) Cutlery or directly from Solingen for this customer.Greetings from Germany.

Might be worth seeing if revisor do replacement scales like those, I've seen identical scales on some revisor methinks

That is a good idea. If you contact Revisor you can ask if they have a set of scales like these Spare parts : E-0013 to fit an 8/8 razor . The you could just transfer the Solingen inlay yourself. Revisor may even be able to supply the scales with the Solingen inlay already attached. Worth a shot.

I was thinking the same thing when I saw that price tag

I personally would not give more than $50 for that one because it looks like it needs some fixing up to take out the scratches and blemishes. Plus it looked like the scales have a hairline scratch in them at the pivot.

Aaron, it does not look 8/8 to my eye?

tell me about the razor in the bottom left of the first pic. Looks like an old frameback or something.
