My brother in law's mother let him have all of her father's 34 straight razors that have been sitting in a display case for the past 15-20 years. He came over tonight so that we could look through them together.

The brands (to name a few):

Wade & Butcher
Crown of Boston
Crown & Sword
AJ Jordan
Henkel
Boker

Out of 34 razors, about 9 were in good shape and just need a run on the hone, about 10 could be restored and become great shavers again, and the rest looked to be unusable. Of course this is all from my very inexperienced perspective.

My brother in law very graciously allowed me to keep 3. He kept 3 for himself to shave with, and the rest will be put back on display at his house.

I got two Bokers (Red Injun 100 and King Cutter) and a Geneva Cutlery with a beautiful eagle etching.

Can't wait to get them honed up and ready to shave. I'll post photos later.

Now I have to write a paper on statistical populations and sampling.
