One Big Week in Dezember, two Auctions and many Razors
Wow, what a week before Christmas, i had Luck in two Auctions but wasnt sure what would come until i had all Razors lying on my Table and i can say it to you, it was really a good surprise :D
Of Course, i expected some nice american Razors, the De Pew and a big sheffield Razor but at the Auction Pics it wasnt clear visible if i bought junk or diamonds, no im lucks that most razors are more diamonds in my eyes instead of junk.
First is this one, a Just-Rite in 5/8", FHG from Boston:

Third a Geneva in 5/8", i believe this is some kind of standard model:

Fourth the DePew, a nice one although i had to fix the broken Scales, easy to sharpen but i couldnt shave with it, the feeling is so unusual and i dont know what to do with my fingers, for years i wished a few more mm on some razors tangs but now i have one with a lot of mm too much. Shaved with it four times and im considering if it will go or stay.

Fifth was the biggest surprise, i knew that i would get an old Sheffield Razor, but i didnt expected a Reynolds in 7/8"
Wedge, now i have a double of these Razor, the one that is shown and a Humpback Frameback in the same size :D

Sixth is a worn Carbo Magnetic, i allway wanted such a Razor but this will go further or later as i look for one in a better condition.
