    Default Kingsley - worth it?

    My awesome wife was cool enough to add to my collection for our anniversary. She ended up getting me a razor that had no markings but from what I found out its a Kingsley. Haven't been able to find much in the way of reviews, so I'm not sure if it's worth sending in to get honed or if its a mantel piece. Anyone have any opinions on this brand?

    Looks to be in great shape, and should hone up nice. Looks to have little to no hone wear.

    Pakistan razor of some sort. Unfortunately it's not a legit straight razor. Shaped like one, but will never hold an edge like one made from high carbon steel.
