My bitter half actually fed my RAD tonight! She paid $10 for it and it's never been used. It smells like mothballs, but there is a thin coat of oil on the blade. I looked up what I could about the "Barbershop" brand and "Franklin Toiletry Company" - it seems that they showed up in the 70s with shaving supplies and went out of business in the late 80's or early 90s. The blade is stamped "MADE IN SPAIN" and has a nice eagle head gold wash with some stars. The blade popped hairs off of my arm right out of the box. Does anyone have experience with this company or blade? I'm curious what kind of steel it is and how hard it'll be to hone. If it's junk then I can use it for honing practice, if not I can get it into the rotation. It looks to be a full hollow grind and is very well balanced. The shoulders look to've been softened slightly. There's absolutely no rust or staining.
