    Default Nice find!

    Short story: Got on the bay last night and saw a lot of razors by a Guy in my town....so I messaged him asking to see them in person....they weren't the best but decent but he had a lot he hadn't posted that I got lucky enough to cherry pick....spent $300 on 6 blades but I'm satisfied....

    First blade...
    15/16 Wade and Butcher in box..still has factory grind marks...very pleased!

    And last but not least!
    Between 17/16 and 9/8 at the tip chopper...lots of patina but only a few small dots of rust on the tang.

    Nice score. Sounds like you may have made a new friend as well!
    The older I get the more I realize how little I actually know.
