You and I both. I save long running threads for a time when I have time to kill. Like between planes or something.

I messaged him about it but he never responded. On the bright side it looks like he did a not bad job of it. I don't get it either.

People buy razors for display purposes in their bathrooms. They think it looks cool to have some sitting in a jar or in a picture frame on the wall, so the don't have to be functional just look nice...

Umm Roy, I'm not sure it is socially acceptable to admit to creeping other peoples photo albums. It's like drinking out of the juice jug, it happens, we just never say it. however, I work on a...

LOL It seems funny that it is a new word because it is such an old word. It is a very good one though.

Some people have little concept with communication, and are truly boors. I hope you find a better deal and dealer.

I think it i an 11V. It is a fairly heavily built 6/8 1/4 hollow. They shave well, at least the really nice ones. ;-)

I often find it a little bit amusing how much hone wear is considered acceptable on a big Sheffield wedge and how little hone wear is acceptable on a German blade. That old Henckels has seen better...

nice crack

Brings a tear to my eye.

I'm fairly certain that it belongs to Sham.

The seller is actually quite well known in the straight razor community.

but it has a custom toe!

Superior Temper Stub tail early 1800's Warranted 3/4" restored straight razor

Another with blown lines. Advertised as shave ready, but check out the bevel.

I never use my phone for ebay viewing. I did not have the experience that he admits he is wrong and resolves the issues. That is actually my big issue with the seller. It was not the first time I...

I started that thread. My biggest beef is that I am absolutely certain that the razor I received was not the one in the ad. Mistakes happen. However he never responded to a single email after the...

The ad also says unopened, so if that is true then this would not be the picture of the actual razor, just one like it. The one in the picture does have some scratching or poor finishing.

West coast scales. Cool man!

Nah! I know you are just as cheap as I am.

There are several razors in my watch list that have crap for razors, but I really like the scales, I know Tom buys razors for their scales as well. So these guys may not be that far off. They are...

It is a great set of scales and collars. The shipping is very high. I don't think I would buy with the landed cost that high and the exchange being rather poor right now makes it too much for the...

He thinks it is a great pice for restoration. I wonder how he thinks that gets done?

I emailed him and explained that the scales were breaking down and that the off gassing was causing the blade to rust. He said no it's not the scales are fine, there is no problem. Either he is...

True. The label is where the money is. Nothing wrong with being optimistic either. Likely he will get all kinds of offers ranging from the lowest low ball to I could do that.

I think that is the deepest crack I have ever seen.
