Thread: I Love Show and Tell!

Hi all,

I am new to the forum even though I've skulked around for a while. A couple of years ago, I got the Straight Razor Fever and I've just been picking up an occasional blade or two ever so often. I have very eclectic tastes and there is no rhyme or reason to what I have picked up. I try not to buy razors I can't use, even though I do have a couple that fall into that category. For instance, I have a W&B pearl handled razor that has absolutely no wear, never has had a bevel set or a sharpening, and has not touched a human face and I don't see much need to use it. A couple don't get used because they are old and scary. They have to be real scary, though, as I have no qualms about using Civil War massives or 9/8 customs all day.

Here are a few of my initial finds as a "collector" (my picture can be seen under the "hoarder" listing in the dictionary). Excuse the pictures. They don't do the razors any justice, but I'm old and virtually computer illiterate, so they are what they are...

Thanks for stopping by!

Steve
