    Default So PLEASED with RupRazor! Thanks Ken!

    The pictures speak volumes. The professionalism, skill and class of Ken at RupRazor. HIGHLY recommend him. The Heirloom W&B that turns out was the personal best razor of my Great Great GREAT Grandfather George Rook of Liverpool, England, who made his way to New Amsterdam, Indiana in 1857. I cherish this and many thanks to Ken who sent it presented in a velvet jewelry box! Note as well the work done on the Puma Special, Dubl Duck No. 1, and the Hunter & Sons 1830's Sheffield. AWESOME!

    (The W&B was a WRECK..... Ken transformed it!!!)

    Rup has 2 of my razors right now and that just made me more excited to get them back one is a W&B wedge the other is a Henry Sears and Sons that was my stepfathers grandpas so its one that I know the history on. I will post the pics when I get them back. Those are some really nice razors you have there. He did a great job.

    They did come out nice. Considering the spidering on the W&B, I would definitely recommend keeping some Camellia Oil on it to ensure with the pitting left that the rusting does not come back.

    Thanks Lynn. Ken had mentioned the oil as well. It is going to be an occassional shaver as I just can't seem to put down the Mappin & Webb razor I purchased from L&D Razors!
