    Awesome. I'll totally check it out next time I'm there. But I can't remember if it was one of the Expensive ones or not and the next thing I'm purchasing is The World of Straight Razors with Lynn Abrams so it might be a while. Oh and the one to the left of what you pointed out with the Tiger Stripes...that one is mine. You can't take it if you get there sooner than I get there. Haha XD.

    yeah im also jealous lol. But really as much as I would love to own every one of those. I am trying to keep my collection to a max of ten razors. I have many bad habbits and SRAD is not another one I need. I am not doing a very good job right now though lol. congrats on your find! be sure to get the ones you want before they are gone. I never pass up antiques if I want it. I have found that it never tends to be there if you "wait" on it.

    grrrrr. too far. I was hoping it might be more like louisville KY area. Wouldnt have been too much of a trip, hit up training in c-bus, use the excuse of riding louisville skatepark on the bikes and pop over to grab a razor or 12.

    That is really awesome! I've passed by Grand Rivers about 6 times in the last 7 years, and never even stopped. Awesome find, and even more cool of you to share it with us. Thanks!
