That's almost exactly what I did. Went way over my limit too, and was most relieved to see that I had been out bid at the final minute.


Mick

Dipped out mate, The winner outbid me by a few dollars more than I was willing to go...But I made them pay for it though! ;)


Mick

Thought I would post a heads up here for any locals that may be interested. I spotted a Rolls Razor in fair condition (Needs a little TLC to clean it up) at an antique store in Redcliffe. Going price...

Replacing the scales on that might amount to "Murder! Bloody murder!" in the eyes of the man from Ironbark.

That jap razor has a picture of a Tasmanian Kangaroo on it, I can tell, as at least one...

Oh yes, Those smilies no doubt avert many a potential feud I'm sure. It is otherwise, very hard to get the tone of a text message just right, without them. :angel::w";";)


Mick

No offence was taken and none was meant. I was simply stating my thoughts. Also there is this little something in Australia called 'taking the p!ss' out of someone. We all get to enjoy that here. I...

Well that all depends on where you grow up Oz :D. I did, in my mini tirade, miss the obvious point of the title to this thread, 'Most common razors in Oz' (Australia, not you Oz, be a painful way to...

Great to know, but why post it in the Aussie forum? Did we become an island of Indonesia without being notified of the change in management?! Although the powers above only know, that, that could be...

Damn, shoulda known there would be a catch...:p


Mick

Is that all you're going to charge for honing it up for me if I win?! :P Geez you're good bloke! :D


Mick

I'll make sure I do that for you Oz...If I win it! I'm about the unluckiest fellow I know. I'm nearly always 'pipped at the post', as I believe the saying goes. :)


Mick

Yes they do, and still do. They started that brand in the 1920's I believe. I have a Timor, and it is a damn fine shaver. G&F also supply blades to Dovo as well so I've heard. I wish I could afford...

What are you trying to do?!?! Inflame my RAD and send me broke?!?! I got enough addictions...That's it! I'm going for a smoke and a stiff Bourbon... :P


Mick

Good on ya cobber. I just put a bid on. See what happens. I only went for it because it said Aussie made...Don't know the truth of it, but if I lose I lose. If I win, well and good too.


Mick

I would say you put the higher price on the Ivory and the same steel in both Ivory and Bakelight. Personally the edge that was on my scabby old wood handled Bengall:p, when I got it back from Os...

If I had the money, I would be driving them back up again!


Mick

OI! I takes offense at that! :D


Mick

What Oz said...If you get back with those Bengall's...:D


Mick

:roflmao


Mick

Nice ones mate.


Mick

Be easier to pull teeth from a pi$$ed off Taipan I'd reckon. :D


Mick

Very nice mate. Good score. Although I'd like to know where you've seen stacks of Bengalls...Those tigers are a little elusive for me. I'm the proud owner of one lone Bengall (Thanks yogibighouse),...

What about after they arrive? Will you post a few pics then???


Mick

Some Mckinney history stuff I was directed to on the web. There is more but most of it pertains to the family business today.

Burial details of the main man...

That's a fine lookin' blade you got there YBH. Good score.
