Thread: Latest antique Find!!! Stein and barbers notch ;D

So i decided to bring a few of my old Beatles and Pink Floyd records to trade at an antique shop in the Montrose area of Houston..I scored!!!! I got a Fredrick Rynolds barber's notch.. it has these cool weird scales that almost look like dry splattered blood.. any of yall know what they are made of? The blade also came with its original box! The scales are in good shape but the very tip of the blade seems to clip with the wedge (the wedge is made of a very soft metal) any of yall know how i can fix that? i might need to repin it too, it is not centered (it grazes to the right side a bit.) i don't want to tap the pin because it is already really tight. i also got a 1950s JUMBO stein! ITS HUGE!!! I have a pic of the stein compared with a normal pint glass... Anyways back to the blade.. its in great shape! only thing is that there is a little chip close to the heel.. should i use my norton 220 or 1000 the hone it out? Also its pretty big.. i have a pic with it next with my B.Lowe which is a 5/8 and my other Fredrick Rynolds... what size do yall think it is? thanks!!!

Here are the pics of the stein

That's not a stein - it's a vase!!!
Nice score on the razor, however the only question I have is, why would you want to get rid of Pink Floyd albums?
I think it should come up nice and that chip should come out OK with the 1k - at least that's how I would do it.

man... our antique malls here suck.....

Hi vvti, Man, I need to bring some of my old records to your local. Really, it is hard to tell from your pics, but the scales are either turtle or died horn. Either way, nice score. Very Best, wildhog

hi vvti, I need to bring some of my old records to Houston. The scales are either turtle or died horn, and the wedge is probally lead. Use a small needle file to gain clearance ( use file on wedge ). Nice score. Very Best, wildhog

Sorry for the double post. that is what happens on the up side of 60. Best, wildhog
