    He's down there, Waterford, all the time. I'm still curious about some of the razors in that case. It's always tough dealing with this sort of thing over the phone. They're there on their free time, I'd hate to make him go through 10 blades trying to decipher what's good and what's bad. I'm betting there's still excellent blades in that case for decent prices.

    There's a fat DE under that blue paper that is intriguing, although it could be just another knack. As well as the rest of the straights and brushes.

    Ima telling you....Up there, all the good stuff is coming out of attics. It will dry up soon.
    Best things I have collected came from Conn, Penn, NY, NH, Mass, and even a recent one from Vermont. Ebay......
    Down in Houston? We get things collected in the 50's by old ladies.... Hard to find a DE!

    Fat techs. Tons of em. But you're right, there was a brief moment a while ago when I thought things were starting to dry up. I was wrong. My last few finds have been superb. I'll keep riding this wave until it crashes.....

    Talk about great luck, and found on a scouting mission.
    I haven't been able to find anything worth buying in months.
    You better have him look at those other razors too. Don't miss out.
    Congratulations and enjoy!

    It's called a horse shoe in my butt.

    But persistence pays off too.
