    Default I found The Perfect Razor

    Does that joke ever get old? I think it might. Guy was asking a bit more then i wanted to pay, but nothing astronomical. He took it down a few bucks so i went for it.

    I wont be touching the face of the blade. Just a little hand polish on the tang, and a toothbrush, floss, and soap for the scales. The hone wear is very minimal and even though there a few tiny dots of rust in the bevel it is popping hairs.

    Can age be determined? Im assuming the patent date is just that, and the production date could be different.

    Its a neat little blade that im happy to own.

    That is the one that I am still seeking. I check the internet regularly for a DePew razor and the Loch Ness monster. So far neither has stuck its head up.

    I think the De Pew is a beautiful razor, one of my favourites. Congratulations.

    Some info from Manah:
    STRAZORS.com - all about classic razors - William H.De Pew, "The Perfect Razor"("monkey tail").

    PM me if you ever want to sell her!!!!
