You've got some seriously nice stuff there. The coticules are beautiful and sure enough one looks to me to be a natural and another a yellow/blue combo. Now I'm blue/green. :rock:
EDIT; Another looks to be a coticule with no slate or blue backing ?

If it is a blue on the dark side absolutely. If the slurry is purple it is a blue. If the slurry is gray it is slate. Back when that fellah was barbering they were usually blue IIRC.Quote:

Nice finds. Now that you've got a start, start looking for more. It never ends until you're six feet under.

I went looking through some antique stores here in Bangkok. I found two stores with actual antiques and one store that knew what a straight razor was.
Nice score. :tu Great razors and hones. :rock:
