A Kobra 7/8 razor.
http://i59.tinypic.com/2ytsllk.jpg
Another Friodur 72-V
There is something about ¼ hollow razors I like.
Bought a beat up lot that consists of a 9/16 Joseph Allen & Sons Barber Notched NON XLL, 5/8 Yankee Cutlery, 5/8 Red Imp made by CASE (has pitting, scales warped and damaged), 5/8 Wade & Butcher (has pitting) & 3/8 Blue Seal heavily oxidized.
A good bin price fir some more projects. Really wanted the non XLL's for a set I'm working on. The red imp I hear is quite good even though this one has some toe wear and bad scales.
But I do like a challenge.

Hopefully it cleans up nice. Not a lover of round points, but they all work..
Cheers.
Fine American Blend
Fine lather bowl, red over white.
Bought a lot, though basically sight unseen.
Henckels, Wade and Butcher, and a Carbo Magnetic -- Straights
Merkur DE razor (new in box)
Rolls Razor (in box) missing handle
The W&B and Carbo Magnetic both had cracks, so this may have been a raw deal.
Proraso green line, parker sr1, gold dollar 208, strop, a new shaving/hygiene kit in the hanging style...and SWMBO will strangle me if even one red cent more goes into my little hobby for a little while lol
18 in. x 6 in. x 13 in. Aluminum Case
Got me one of those for keeping things organized at home, and ruggedly protected when I visit the family six hours away. My SWMBO pointed it out to me, and loved the price :D.
