    Looks like it has quite ab it of hone wear but asides from that I bet it is a really great shaver. I love those original scales! Very nice piece.

    There are no price evaluations given her, sorry. That's a lovely piece though. Loads of hone wear but I bet it'll sharpen up. The scales are fantastic. Pure (100%), Neatsfoot oil is your friend with them. Great find.

    very nice, origional box and scales, and wostenholms are excellent razors. looks like excessive hone wear though, which looks bad, but can really be a cosmetic thing, sometimes. if cleaned-up would real nice. congrats. if you arre not comfortable with doing this yourself there are several here that can help.

    be careful with the scales, because they are the originals.
    Nice razor!

    I have a similar razor with the same scales. What does the neatsfoot oil do? Is that just to protect them and keep them from cracking, or is there something you can do to restore the scales with it? Unfortunately, mine are de-laminating at the edges a bit.
