    Default NOS? Clauss USMC

    I picked this up on eBay, it was a must have item for this old Marine. From the looks, it has never been honed but has a few small scratches I plan to buff out before sending it to Lynn for her first hone.

    This razor got me thinking, although I do like it and the condition is great, sometimes I like to shave with a razor that has some history. But take a look:

    Thanks for your service Marine!
    You have found a rare treat in that razor. Congratulations. You will really understand what a treat it is when Lynn sends
    that beauty back to you. Enjoy and welcome to SRP.

    Like Tom said, CLAUSS razors are excellent shavers. A USMC razor in that shape is a nice catch.

    Good job MARINE!

    Thanks for being the strong right arm of DON.

    My apologies sir but the correct term is former. Not a co.troversial person but that has been used since I was in from 1988 until 1998
