    Default Recent Buys From the Bay

    Here are some recent eBay wins I scored. The first one is a Robeson ShurEdge "The Razor That Fits Your Face". The second one is a Jonathan Crooks heavy wedge razor. The third one is an old Genco with horn scales & the last one is an M.J. Higgins
    Sheffield. They are all pretty nice. I like 'em!

    The Crookes is fantastic, always liked the shoulderless blades!

    Congrats on some nice looking razors.

    Those Shuredge razors are fantastic shavers when well honed. Nice pick up.

    The Robesons are great shavers, but keep an eye on it, the scales are notorious for developing cell rot!

    I had no idea the Robesons were like that too. They once belonged to an old barber from the '20's - up & he had them wrapped in felt & stored in a dry place.
