Thanked: 480Magpie at the Mall
a successful visit to the local antiques mall
A Rolls on the cheap, because the hone was loose in the box. (guess they didnt know how to install it!)
A 6/8 Jung 80
In another booth down the row I found a Frico that I really liked even with a small chip in the blade and warping scales, Not to mention it came with a Jung 80 Box!
A Wosty
A lying liar Neva-Hone
And a Wester Bro De-Fi
After all the discounts I paid a total of about 55 bucks. Not a bad day.

Thanked: 480SOME of the vendors there were TRYING to steal. Two rows over was another booth, with another rolls, with a broken hone and missing the handle, and they were asking 40 bucks! More than a few straights with out of proportion pricing.
I told the attendant "Thats the Crack Isle" "I think all those dealers are smoking too much crack!"

Thanked: 480Action on the Rolls was tight, any lubrication had long since turned to gum. A good cleaning, and she was working fine. Just honed up the blade, and will be getting a rolls shave this evening. Sometimes a straight on a stick is a nice change of pace.

Thanked: 146I think those Jung 80's are fantastic shavers! Had a few pass thru my hands and they have all been sweet. Enjoy!
