    Default Finally won on flebay.

    I've been using a straight for about a year now and after many attempts I finally won an auction on flebay. Name: DSCN0073.jpg Views: 341 Size: 60.0 KB
    It arrived today, the case is a bit tatty with some rust spots I guess it was stored in a bathroom but the razor seems fine but I don't think it has ever been honed, I can only imagine how bad the guys shaves were!
    Is there anyone that offers a honing service in Scotland? I know of and have used a couple of guys in England but I'm hoping for someone closer to home.

    Congrats! Is it blued? I've had a few blued razors and I love that look.

    Not blued but I wish it was I like that look too, just the flash on my camera. I'm quite happy though as it only cost me £44 including p&p.
