    Default Vintage Razor Ads

    I was looking for some info on a razor I bought and incidentally found some nice ads from the 1920s and thought I'd share. Maybe everyone could add whatever ads they have here. I find that whenever I buy a razor I want to know as much about it as possible..











    After reading these ads it got me wondering if we are overstropping and overhoning these days.. In ShaveOfTheDay I read about people doing 100-150 laps total on linen/leather and honing every month or two, but in these ads they say you shouldn't go more than three-four strokes on leather and rarely more than half a dosen.. And the Shumate ad claims you don't need to hone for years with their razor. What do you guys think?
