Thread: Reaper...(sort of)

Well at least 1/2 of one.......


Now to find the brass!






SO.... Does anyone have an extra set of brass lying around?
You would be my best friend......

I will keep an eye peeled for some......
BUT.... I think it will be some time before you find them......
Hopefully someone has some laying around.

I am sure someone has some and wants to be my best friend...

You see dead blades in the original scales periodically, certainly more often than you see a whole razor or even a nice blade in oddball scales. I can;t think of a better custodian for that blade. I guess that means you only need the Napoleon now to complete your collection.

THANKS!
I do see ones with blades messed up more than good blades.
I am hoping to find one that is not to $$ (YEAH.... GOOD LUCK I KNOW)

I am SURE there are PLENTY more that I don't have....
I could use a Napoleon... You got one?....

Even the ones that are gassing badly get silly on eBay a lot of the time. Presumably for the bolsters?

Yes unfortunately....

LOL - about six months ago we could of had a conversation.....

I had the scales, in very nice condition, but the blade turned out to have a small crack in it - yikes! You might remember the thread, got a great price on it and was more worried about the scales, blade ended being the trouble spot with that tiny crack.

The VoidMonster happened to have the blade only, and a Reaper was born....a smaller razor all around, but very nimble and one of the few Ducks I don't mind using....

That's what I'm hoping for, bad blade....good scales.
We will see, only time will tell.....

I will keep eyes on the grinder for you Ed.
