    Fantastic etch on that blade too Mike. Super crisp!
    I gave him more than I wanted, but was still a fair price, per condition.

    I just can't understand these "Flea Markets" that some of you guys find your gems.
    I have never found anything shaving related at a flea market,,, did find about half of a greasy Carborundum that the vendor pulled out of his toolbox,,, he wanted $30.00 for it . I just walked away in shock.

    Florida is supposed to be the place where all the seniors come to finish their years,,, you would think they would at least bring their straights with them,,, so I could benefit from their passing.

    ,,,, but No,, they leave their straights at the dang flea markets up North.

    Nice haul, outback! BTW, the Allegheny Instrument razor can be attributed to Carl Monkhouse during a short tenure there.

    The trick is to make it there before the vendors do so that you can check whale they bring it out.
