Thread: aaaaghh!!

i just dropped my boker red injun and the blade has split,i really liked that razor as it was my first,it felt light and well balanced and i enjoyed shaving with it, also being vintage it felt like a bit of the past you know trying to imagine someone shaving many years ago maybe in candlelight with it.
but now i want to replace it with another vintage any suggestions on a similar razor to the boker?

I feel your pain.

There are many vintage blades out there - take your pick- henckels, dorko, etc.

Red Injuns come up on ebay all the time.

Sorry to hear about that. Where did it split? If it's close to the toe you could get it ground down and rescaled, and you'd have your very own dwarf Boker.

As Steve says, if you really liked the Boker, they do come up quite regularly on ebay.

Are the scales still good? i might have a loose blade laying about if my memory serve me correctly it is in decent condition... i'll search around the the shop if you would like.

true they come up on ebay but its like a good friend, the others are just not the same.

[Johnny] No it's not. Spike had a white spot here.

jim i would appreciate that very much and of course i would cover any costs incurred for postage and the blade.

No problem, a little crazy glue and the razor will be in top shape to sell on Eboy as a razor in good shape.
