Vintage Boker Came Yesterday
I was so excited to see the package in the mail. I'm just amazed at the restoration. I wish I knew what it looked like before it was restored. I'm excited to take it for a spin. Like every other Boker I've owned, it is honed super sharp.

I'm sorry for my ugly hands. I'm in dire need of a manicure.

Very nice. I like the fact that the scales match the blade and are traditional looking, yet elegant.

I wasn't real sure what to think about the scales at first. I loved the design but was he site t because they were rubber. I can tell you that the scales feel great in my hand. They look brand spanking new. Not bad for a razor that is 110 years old.
Now I need a Boker Pearl and a Boker Waldorf to make a nice set. I doubt I'll ever see this model again. I don't even know what model it is.

It really does. The pics don't do it justice. It looks like it could be a brand new current production model. I don't know what it looked like before the restoration, but they did an incredible job. I think the blade might have been gold washed originally and had "Trade Mark" etched on the side of the blade.
