Thread: Antique store razor

I heard some people on here talking about getting razors at antique stores, so I went to two of them in my area. I bought this razor at one of them today. It is a Boker. I started restoration by removing some of the rust with a small wire brush. The tang says H Boker co. and the blade says Our Leader. I think it will make a shaver. although the rust on the logo has left deep pits. Mack.

How about some pictures

Got a pic? Whereabouts in Florida? I've been out to a few around the north-central area and had some good success. The problems I've had have been that there are many 'antique malls' where vendors just rent space and the people manning the registers don't seem to have much flex in price, so I've seen many overpriced (for me) razors in the area. I've had a few good purchases, though!

Here it is .

I'll try again

Love the tree logo scales on those. Wonderful.
