    Pretty sure I have seen it done... Or was it another brand with such decorated blades ?

    Anyhow, very nice box of tet'nus you've found there
    I have yet to score my first W&B, but for my defense I'm not eagerly looking for them either lol.

    Beautiful is important, but when all is said and done, you will always be faithful to a good shaver while a bad one may detter you from ever trying again. Judge with your skin, not your eyes.

    Reminds me of the lot of oldies I got a few years back. Nice grab, Paul.

    That's understandable as the US was their main export market. You see many more here than in England where they were made.

    You know, that's more or less what I'd guessed, glad to see it written black on white. This side of the pond, they are grossly overpriced since they are rarer. (7-day sets with changeable blades are cheaper...)
    For the price you pay a FBU here, i'd rather buy a Lund or a Weiss.
    And yes, while I'm still missing a big large chunky heavy blade in my rotation, I'm just waiting for a bona fide Magnum Bonum

    Time is on my side.


    But in your shoes, I might do the same

    Anyhow, once again, nice finds lately

    Not sure yet. I haven't seen them yet and the pictures weren't very good. I'll let you know as soon as I see em.

    Got The Army Razor in. The blade is in great shape. No hone wear at all.

    Those scales have a buttload of bug bites.

    They're still really transluscent though, even as dries up and bug bit they are.
    Big project.
    Very doable.
    Nice when it's finished.

    Looks like it's been laying around in a cupboard untouched all these decades. Very nice find Paul.
