    Default Pics of my New Razors

    Please excuse the quality of these pics, I broke the display of my brand new camera The first two pics are "Silver King" by Wilbert cutlery Chicago. The last pic is a "Shur Edge". They were both very inexpensive.

    I sure will. I am sending them both to Lynn for honing. I am a newie and will need to learn to shave, first. I've already ordered Lynn's DVD. I will update with my results.

    Nice finds. The blade on that Silver King looks like it's in great condition.

    Super finds! The Silver King looks great, but I will bet the Wilbert turns out to be the better shaver. I love them-never seen a bad one. Wilbert was a trademark of Sears Roebuck from 1908-1921.

    Both should be fine shavers.

    I have been studying the terminologies used in straight razors, and I think the Wilbert Silver King has either never been used or at least never honed, as there is no indication of hone wear.
