    That "Master Barber" should suit you very well indeed Dennis. Are you sure that one razor is a one piece MOP? That would be a HUGE find.

    When you are dead, you don't know that you are dead. It's difficult only for the others.
    It's the same when you are stupid.

    Nah look at the tang, it is mop covered, the scales are most likely celluloid. The guy had another similar Torrey nearly mint till u opened it and it had the beginnings of cell rot, made me sad, had to pass on it though....id say the I passed on 20 straights today, ive finally gotten pretty picky unless they are ultra cheap...they make good wall decor at the shop. I also passed on some really nice gillettes but I dont use razors with training wheels anyways haha.

    I've passed on more than my share of SR's at antique shops. The venders have outrageous prices on them but most couldn't be saved even with a degree from Hogwarts.
