Hey, alabamalawyer, I see you live in T-town. It was at an antique store there where I found the German razor I used today. Maybe sometime when I'm back up that way, I'll look you up. Nice to see Bammers on here.

Sure, drop me a PM. If I were betting, you probably found it at the Anique Mall off Skyland Blvd. It is one of the few that might have a decent razor every now and then. I was there yesterday checking on what they had. No luck though.Quote:
