Help with ID? could this be a Red Imp?
Was traveling on business last week and was in an area with several Antique stores. Went in to one that was a one room store front that was packed with more stuff than I ever saw in on place. There was a little old lady that asked if there was anything in particular I was looking for and I said I just wanted to browse. Took about 5 minutes to quickly survey everything, and on my way out I asked about straights. At that point she started pulling out about a dozen different straight she had behind the counter. All were in really good shape and fairly priced. I only had a limited amount of cash and my wife would have sent me packing if I had bought everything I wanted to. I settled on this wedge for $9.00 and a Van Camp Special Barber Hone for $10.00. The razor has no identification on it. It is a wedge. The razor is solid and the scales are in great shape. There is some hone wear, but it sharpened up great. It was in a box labeled RED IMP Razor NO.132 Wedge -9/16.. The box is in really good shape. The razor is a wedge and it does measure 9/16. Anyone recognize this razor could this be the a Red Imp and the box is matched to the razor? From what I've been able to determine Red Imp razors usually are well labeled. Any feed back would be appreciated.
