    Default 1st Vintage Purchase

    My first vintage purchase! Any info on it would appreciated. Has some rust on it even though the blade is suprisingly shiny.

    It looks nice mav13 - give it a polish, get it honed and it looks like a good shaver
    Hang on and enjoy the ride...

    I agree, it looks like it will be a nice shaver. Sheffield steel razors usually do! Enjoy your new found joy!

    little bit of maas'll get rid of that rust spot. Nice find. I love getting ebay razors, some of them are downright beautiful, yours seems in really good condition

    I'm hoping to get my first vintage razor very soon, I've been hunting around. Hopefully I will find one as nice as that. Good find!

    That looks like it may have Ivory scales! Give us a closeup of the pins and the scales. Nice Work!
