    Today i saw a flea market next to my home. I found only one razor, this Puma.
    It's a 1938 Puma, 5/8 size with plasic scales.

    Sure, that is one of their best IME. It is one of the few with a French point. Great trimming around a moustache or goatee.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    You had some very good luck finding the hohl model at a flea market. And as JimmyHAD said it is a great shaving Puma.

    I have picked up a few in flea markets myself but that one looks new. I usually find them and they look like a wood saw now and then you get lucky and find a nice one.

    I just saw a nice Puma go for $39.95 on the bay. Wish I could have gotten it. I usually see them with hone wear on them but there is a new one someone wants $300 bin. No way I could do that! I had one & it was a great shaver but it had hone wear & I sold it. One day I hope to find one with little or no hone wear.
    Very nice score!!!!!!!
