Im curious to see the beautiful and ornate Straights that other enthusiasts own. I love sterling, m.o.p, Ivory, Tortoise...
I have been collecting for 14 years and absolutely love what you fellow enthusiasts and shavers do. Im a Barber by Trade and Inventor/ Business Owner/ Antique Enthusiast.
Cant wait to see what you have.
-Justin-Attachment 262563 Here is One of Mine...
Mine is also the only straight I own this far. It is my first, and it has been sent out for a good cleaning and honing. So this picture doesn't do it justice. I will try and post another when it returns.

I'm not sure if this is ornate, but it is a pretty cool set of scrimshaw bone scales.

Probably this Thiers-Issard Oakwing 7/8 (268/400) limited edition. Lovely spinework. I also have this Livi 6/8 new grind with abalone scales that looks pretty striking.

Skuttle by Derby silver Co.
7/8 Wosty in aluminum scales.

Wow. Nice lookers. I dont have anything like these. Damn, now i got to buy a fancy one too. You guys are killing me.
I don't generally play favorites, but this pair of brass-scaled (formerly silver-plated) W&B Celebrated razors always makes me smile! :)

I guess this pair could be considered ornate ?
Attachment 262602
Slightly, Jimmy....Just slightly! ;)
Absolutely stunning did you plate them in Brass? I just casted a beautiful victorian Shavette in solid Bronze
The scales are plain honey horn, but the blade is a tad ornate: George Wostenholm & Sons Masonic wedge.

Just got this in today's mail from Bruno.
Damascus and Wootz with orange gems.
Can't wait till tomorrow's shave.
Pictures, especially mine with the cell phone, don't do it justice.
Jimmy's pair is going to be hard to beat.

No one is violating or advertising. Merely enjoying the tonsorial arts and networking amongst other fellow enthusiasts. If I need to sell something you will be sure to recieve the $10 fee and post in the buy and sell section. Enjoy fishing for tires and old boots...:aargh:
Your close & this has been discussed with you before by other Senior Moderators. Another reply like this one & this thread is closed.Quote:

We have forum rules and we are mostly self-policing in that regard.
As you came in, the mods have now been attracted to you a few times.
Go with the flow and get up to member introductions and begin anew by introducing yourself.
Settle down and see where it goes. We need good enthusiastic members here.
Just realize the rules are here for good reasons.
Likely a simple learning curve?
Is this not a site for Networking and Forums? You entrapped me by asking where is the razor. Are these the games the moderators play with fellow Enthusiast and Industry Professionals? I have access to 4 million dollar collections of razors through out the nation and this is they way you treat other "New" Members. The taste in my mouth is rather unpleasant. I know the guys that wrote the books on razors. I dont need a moderator to set up a "new" member for networking on a Forum:dropjaw:
That is classic and undeserved. Sadly, I think your rather successful thread here has been derailed....By you!
If you are too good to be urged to introduce yourself in the proper manner, this may not be the place for you.
Million dollars aside!

We all do really. :)
Since you have arrived, there have been more than "4" issues with you involving advertising.Quote:

I, for one, gave you the benefit of the doubt on your intentions here.
On two of the reported issues, I spoke on your behalf in moderator discussions.
My question to you earlier, got the response that clearly indicated your intentions with your presence here on Straight Razor Place.
