    Default Fleamarket beauties

    (From bottom to top)
    Bottom coticule measures 13 cm x 3 cm.
    The next one measures 20 cm x 4,5 cm
    The one with the wooden handle measures 21 cm x 4 - 4,5 cm
    The top one with the wooden block measures 15 cm x 3,5 cm

    The coticules need some lapping and cleaning. The heljestrand razor needs a good polish and some new ivory scales. Then off to the hones and shave.

    Didn't cost me that much actually, considering all the finds. The total package has cost me around 80 - 90 $. It's not always you find 4 coticules at 1 fleamarket.
