thanks for the pics... what kind of sand paper did you use if thats what you used... I will keep you guys updated and probably will start a thread on it in the restoration section.

YA that sounds awesome... I will probably tear it down and fix the chip in the scales and possibly sand the blade a bit depending on how deep these pits are.... ill keep you posted and let me know...

I do like the looks of that one! look forward to seeing what you can do with yours. are you planning on a restore?

Well here it is... pretty good condition... there is a little chip in the scales at the bottom that you might be able to see in one of the pictures... it should be able to be sanded and blended...

Arrived today. Pictures to come shortly. Looks pretty nice should be able to clean up. There is a small chip in the bottom of the scales. Possibly could sand it smooth.

well here is a question.. if i sand dyed horn would that take off the dyed part? i dont know i havent touched scales yet... just cleaned them off... ill have to see when i get it... i will probably...

Awesome! Thanks for your imput. I do have a question. How will I tell when I receive it? Is there a different feel?

So the J. Wostenholm was supposed to arrive today, but the tracking says "missent". I didnt have any mail, and i dont think i will get any today so hopefully it will show tomorrow.

Absolutely! It should be here sometime this week.

Yes sir. I was the one and only bidder surprisingly. I was waiting for someone to come in and bid at the last second. It looks in pretty good condition from the pictures so we shall see. Thanks!

Isn't it Joseph Wostenholm.

Thank you. It is good to hear that it isnt a bad purchase. We will see when I get it how great of condition it really is.

Ahh haaa... I just found it as your post popped up. Thanks!

Thank you for the note. Im not sure what dyed horn is, but I will check it out!

will do! pretty pumped.

Yes! Thank you both for the quick info on it. I was the only bidder, and think it was a pretty good deal... Although that was my first ebay razor purchase, and I was pretty nervous.

I asked the seller a few minutes ago when i posted this, but no response yet.

BTW What size blade do you think this is? 6/8?

Ya somehow I cut my ear lobe the first shave I had... :banghead:

That Is gorgeous! Love barber notches...

I did not think it was horn.. looked like a celluloid tortoise shell to me, but hey I'm still learning. I believe my Top Flight is a spike point as well no? I know its not a round point.

interesting... I think I saw a post you made about yours. Ill throw a light bid out at it then. Thanks for the info!

Gentlemen,

I have been looking for an affordable SR with a bigger blade to try since my top flight is a 4/8. I found this Wostenholm EBRO that seems to be in decent condition. What are your...
