7/8 + Hilger & Sons
Really surprised to find it as clean as it is, blade is like a 16th over 7/8, fairly sharp, flat scales and still has most of the bluing on tang and shoulder. Hilger & Sons, Remscheid-Germany on back side of shoulder, and an 80 plus a circle with an H and what looks like a tulip on face side of shoulder, hopefully will get her honed up for a shave drive tonight. Shipping was more than the price I paid for the Razor. 2.85 for razor !

Beautiful. Talk about 'under the radar', that is a steal ....... and quite a bit of steel there too .... if you don't mind the play on words.

At this rate, I'll have to hire 'Gill to find blades!
'Very nice find. Outrageous price.
Today wasn't bad. '5/8 Wosty IXL 1/4 grind from the recently departed grandson of the original buyer in the original box. 'Well stored, with moderate hone wear.
5/8 Shumate 'Tungsteel' w/ a moderate smile and ZERO hone wear. (I LOVE american blades).
Then, a call from a friend saying he had found his Great Uncle's razor he wanted to give me. 'Was an import for a US company from a Soligen mfr. The blade has an image of 'two stick figures' and the word 'Twinworks' on the shank
Pinklather's doing a happy dance all evening
