    Default I don't have RAD, but swear. Really I don't.

    I just stopped in at the antiques fair to look around. Really.
    This just jumped in front of me...
    It's a Geneva Cutlery Co from New York. I didn't know anything about it but it was in excellent condition and I was able to get it for $25.00.
    From what I have read, it's a common razor and the tang stamp on this one is pre-1928. I think this will be the first razor I attempt to hone myself. Of course I will have to wait until HAD sets in[emoji1]

    Thanks. I've found three nice razors recently. One in Clearlake, one in Sacramento and one in Jackson. They are around.

    The only decent ones I find in the bay are ridiculously overpriced.
