    Default New Purchase - Personalized Bolsters

    Picked up this razor on the bay tonight. Notice the bolsters with my initials.

    It looks to be a F. W. Engels re-branded by the West Side Grinding Company, which apparently operated about 3 miles from where I live.

    Are those your real initials, or only for WestSideGuy? That's a great find either way

    Only for WestSideGuy. Apparently the company that re-branded the razor operated about 3 miles from where I live (so the razor has appeal to me for several reasons). I'm going to check out the address over the weekend. If I had to bet, I'd wager that that location is currently a Starbucks or a bank.
