    Default 2 BEAUTIES

    if you check pictures you will see in fact none of the blade ever sharpened. Interestingly someone rounded the tip. rest of the spine doesn't have any hone wear. Enjoy guys.

    Seeing as BB did barber supply, maybe they were pre-muted for barbers.

    Sham, those are absolutely wonderful looking razors, and I expect they might shave just like Dubl Ducks when you get them honed. Congratulations on a great score!

    These were used by a barber who used a small barber hone and honed the front half of the blade mych more than the back half. Look at the front part of the spine. It is warn down too. This wasn't done intentionally, it was done by someone not wanting to take the time to properly hone it. Back when these were in use replacement razors were not all that expensive so they were viewed as a tool. IMHO

    I thought Sham said these were totally unhoned

    My congratulations. Really nice razors made by Bresduck. I've never seen these razors before.

    They don't look to be honed IMO. The curvature of the toe matches the spine. Beautiful razors. I like the hammered shank and tang and the way the logo is nestled between. Nice curve on the tail also. In fact there is no way that you will ever require two of them. Sell one to me immediately. Now.

    I've seen a number of old Bresduck/Bresnik razors with this done on the spine... I think it is manufactured.
