    Default Fairly new to straight razor shaving/collecting

    I bought two razors for 25 dollars at a local antique store. One is a Thistle Cut. Co. and the other is a Bengall. The Bengall is fair condition and the Thistle is good condition. I got them both to shave condition with little work. Just wondering, how did I do?

    I honed a Thistle for a member not too long ago it shaved very well the Bengalls have their own fan club, for 25$ you did quite well.

    I'm the one nun sharpened the thistle for, mine was a fantastic shaver, still regret selling it. I really want a bengal, some day. you did good. I really need to get out and look at the local antique stores.
