Up until this purchase we only had one Genco. Now that we have a bunch it appears that we have a sub collection going for one of each Genco model. We just picked up a Genco Nubak at a flea market. ...

Yep, it's a honing tool. It has wheels on both sides and the handle angle pivots depending on which side is on the hone. I haven't tried it out yet, have any of you? Is this meant for straight...

It's been a few weeks since the last post made to this thread. I'm surprised that nobody has asked about the tool in the upper right corner of the first picture. Anyone interested in knowing what...

Isn't it just the greatest feeling?! :y You are absolutely correct in that it can do all of your honing. It can do the bevel also if you have the time (lots of it) to spend. CarrieM and I found...

Great story Gunner. A Coti/BBW and Bengal Wedge for 10 bucks each! WOW!

I like hearing about others that make great scores in antique shops. Sometimes asking helps, sometimes it only gets in...

Thanks for looking. I wasn't able to find much either. Maybe someone else will be able to come up with some info. I should have it honed up by the end of Saturday. WE're having our Western NY...

Thank you. We haven't honed this one up yet. How does your's shave? Out of curiosity do you know anything about this razor like country of origin, mfg. or history?

Thanks to all for you wonderful feedback. I have to take another look at the hone and see for sure what color the slurry was. First thing in the morning isn't the best time to make observations...

I think the Jossep was a recent EBay snag. One of the few.

Yea, it had us stunned for a while too. With every find we just got more and more stunned and hoped that we didn't find anything we couldn't afford but couldn't leave behind.

I'll get the pics up...

There was one more item in our jaunt this past weekend, a hone. I didn't include it in the photo because we didn't have time to do anything to it at that time. This morning before work JrJoeD and I...

The Torrey does have a perfect MOP tang. We don't get any calls from anyone on their stock. Mostly we are just lucky but we do try to put some intelligence behind where we go and when. Thank you...

I learned to shave with my Dad's Super speed. It's been a long time since I used a DE. Today the DE's go to JrJoeD and CarrieM. THe Henckels seven day set is hers and the Red Tip and Aristrocrat...

Yesterday CarrieM, JrJoeD and I went antiquing a bit out of our normal route. A good haul and excellent prices. I have close ups of the individual blades so if you would like to see any of them on...
