Thread: Razor Question For Beginner

Thank you every one. Everything is really appreciated. This is a wealth of info. I promise I will get pics up for you guys as soon as I can, the only problem is I dont have a camera so they will be camera phone quality when they do arrive. Once again, thanks a ton.

Ok so I should have some time later tonight to upload some pics, like I said though they will just be phone pictures. But I will do the best I can with what I have. Right now at the engineering building studying for an exam but having trouble focusing because something is eating away at me. Do any of you have any inclination sight unseen into what the one razor is that has a crown followed by an R stamped into the blade. I see no name or any other markings. I am deciding whether or not I want to chose it as the first to restore. The blade by far looks the coolest but the scales are broken so I'd would have to make new ones. Thank you guys, Ill get back with some pictures later.

The razor with the crown is probably an old sheffield razor. The pics will help us to figure out what it is and if it should be restored.

Added a picture of the crown R blade in my above post, I would like to add more but idk if this is good enough quality. Like I said I am just using my cell phone. I will have access to a camera this weekend. I will try to add razor pics than. But just to hold you guys off till than. I will include some pictures I was able to take. 1 is the goldedge, 1 is the shumaker, and one is the wm elliot. An update on the collection, I gave the wonderedge to my mom. There was this old picture of my grandpa in his barbershop using the razor and she wanted it as a keepsake to keep with the picture. Also I gave my roommate one of his choice as he wants to start straight razor shaving with me and he chose the case red imp. So I no longer have that one either. Now the pictures...

That's a nice looking Dubl Duck. I want one of those so bad

Grandpa had good taste in razors and you are fortunate young man to have them to cherish and use.

Take care of them and your sons and grandsons may have them to enjoy as well.

The pics of the razors you posted so far look to be in really good shape!
