There are lots of razors Ive seen, that are more beautiful. The thing that gets me about this one, is its age, and how it managed to stay completely blemish free, as new for all these years.And not necessarily in someones collection...It was sitting in an old backpack from the late 1800's in Connecticut , according to the seller....For all I know this is not as uncommon as I think. Im pretty new to straights...About 2 1/2 months,,,,,I own 4 Red imps(2 Nos,2 beaters) and an Nos wester bros.And I was completely infatuated with the Imps, warped scales and all....but not like this baby! I just hope I like shaving with this type of heavy grind...
