And additionally, when I got home I also got a package with another Boker I was waiting on!

A King Cutter with Mother of Pearl tang. Unfortunately while there isn't any rust on the blade, the...

Just at an antique store at a neighbouring city and picked up this unique Boker. A bit of rust on it which will undoubtedly mean that some of the gold etching will be lost, but the blade itself seems...

I really like that one! MoP tang with a thumb notch! Very nice!

An "Our Own". This and a few others were actually from a private collector now that I think of it. He had some nice Bokers, but that was about it.

Bought the whole collection from him so I had...

An "Unrivalled" hollow ground. A 'bay purchase that came in very tarnished but pretty sharp. When I got the Autosol out, she polished right up to a near mirror finish, and uncovered a very nice...

I finally got an Edelweiss! Another antique store find, the etching was in better shape before I took the autosol polish to it... :cry: I tried to see if there was any mention of the edelweiss...

My "Celebrated" Boker. Yay! This one's seen some use, and someone tried to polish her up but just ended up taking off part of the etching... :cry: still sharp enough as is to shave with though,...

The "Puritan". I'm not sure if this was made specifically for a company or someone, as I can't really find anything that has to do with puritan razors at all. The spine is very pitted, but it's...

This one was an antique store find. Big blade on her in decent condition, scales have a crack on the rear non-pivot end along with several chips, so I may replace them, but I may not.

Once again, another 'bay find. Scales were amazing condition, and the blade is ok. Some odd hone wear, and some tarnishing near the spine and toe, but she still should clean up well!

So... I've been a bit... busy... with a SRA... I've picked up a few more Bokers recently, some from antique shops in the area, and a couple from the 'bay. I'll post pictures of each one in seperate...

Judging from the stamp on the tang, that edelweiss is fairly new-ish, from the last 30-40 years anyways as far as new goes. Still a very nice razor though!

I'm still missing an edelweiss for my growing Böker collection. Very nice razors!

Just picked up two more Bokers from an antique dealer. Ones just a pretty basic King Cutter, but it's in generally very good condition. No rust, little hone wear, a very slight smile, and the gold...

Here's another Boker I just picked up at an antique place in the city I'm in. I've never seen a Boker wedge before, but now I own one! It will end up being 5/8" after it's honed down because of the...

Here are those pics I promised. lol

So the yellow scales came with the King Cutter blade with no scales, but as I said previously the blade was too big for the scales, so I reattached them to...

I've picked up several more bokers, and finally got some scales for those cracked yellow ones I posted earlier. I had originally made some red oak scales and had put the blade on those, but I ended...

That's because those scales belong to the "new" Boker Arbolito straight razor. Not sure how he got ahold of those scales without a blade, but good on him!

I'm new to the group, but have been shaving with a straight razor for a couple of years now. I literally within the last 2 days have picked up 3 Boker razors for a whopping $60 total. There are 2...
