What would my model razor be? The Celebrated?
Thanks Again Guys...
This has been alot of fun....Im itching for another now, that I dont have to worry so much about keeping perfect.. Im dying to shave with it !Last edited by Chefbaze; 04-30-2012 at 02:29 AM.

Okay....Now ..this is what we are going to do...... Originally Posted by Chefbaze
Sorry for posting twice, but Im just excited..I posted about this razor immediately after I won the ebay auction the other day, asking about the scales, whether theyre original and date/history of it.The sellers Photos looked like the blade was rusty..Well it arrived today and, I am friggin speechless....It hasnt a mark on it..Never honed..No rust, No marks, Perfect scales, Unbelievable!!! The picture below is from the seller on ebay, and they looked like there may be some rust on the blade, not only is there not any rust, it looks as though it was manufactured yesterday April 27 2012!!! I dont mean to gloat, Im just more than pleasantly surprised, and baffled, as to how this razor stayed in such condition for over 100 years!!! The seller said it was found wrapped in an old late 1800's era backpack...Anyway, Im hesitant to even hone it up..I know I may be making a big thing out of nothing. For all I know Im just a naive newbie, and this is common.... but DAMN ITS NICE!!!
This is what I thought I was getting.......

I'm happy for you but I feel bad for the seller who's losing out on so much money because of his lacking photography skills.

Unbelievable find! As someone that has been on the wrong side of winning a few eBay sales. I too have been lucky twice ( but not as lucky as you!) and want to thank the members here for giving advice on what to look for and how to buy.
