    I don't think Sears made them. They were made in Solingen either by ERN or by Koeller.

    Don't know about the warranty.

    Here is a recent thread.

    Test shaving my newest "keeper," a 13/16 humpback Wostenholm Pipe.

    I wanted the name to pay tribute to Karl Erik, my favorite pipe maker, but the name had to be a woman's name (for obvious reasons). I decided to pick a fitting name that started with "Ke." I settled on Keelin, a Celtic name meaning "slender" and "fair," since the blade is nearly full hollow (though I suspect it was a regrind).

    My first straight shave ever and it was awesome.

    In honor of the nicks I received during the process today, I shall call my razor Brutus, so the next time it cuts me I can remark "Et tu, Brute?"

    Dovo Best Quality 5/8 "Brutus"
    Hand Thrown Lather Bowl (By Me)
    Conks Bay Rum

    and of course Conk's Styptic for all those cuts.

    can't wait for the next shave!
