I sort of have gotten in to resorting razors, and i wonder if anyone would know where i can buy some, when i saw in need of restoration i mien rust, and scales. I am willing to pay at most 20 bucks for beat up razor. I have looked on ebay, but i hate getting into bidding wars.
antique stores....they normally have them at a decent price
I've got a blade that needs new scales. Blade is in good shape. I can send more info via PM.
You can put a WTB ..... want to buy .... in the classifieds. Asking for items to buy or for restore business in the open forum is a violation of the rules.
Gun shows usually have knife vendors, who often have a few straight razors.
Antique stores are probably best, but sometimes they have overoptimistic prices. Ask them hard questions like "Well, how long has this skanky old thing been taking up space in your display cabinet?" Or gentler words to that effect.
Flea markets, too. Check out the flea markets.
Good luck.
There's an ad in the Classifieds right now, 9 razors and 4 loose blades for $250. I bought a similar lot about a year ago; it was a good way to pick up a variety of projects in an area where the antique stores are pretty thin on razors.
I discovered a couple of stinkers in my collection--pitting along the edge--but also got some treasures.
check on ebay. there's always old ones in need of restoration on ebay.
