Looks like it's time for display board #2

Pete <:-}

Out of room for a second display board unless i get rid of my shot glass collection. I started that in the 80s. It has dwindled down to about 50 now. But ive drug them around for years. and the amount of liquior they have seen. I dont think so. Too bad i dont drink the stuff any more.

Oh man, what an awesome collection you have Outback. Here I thought I was doing good with hitting 25 last week, and you just got me with the first drawer. You need to explain to my wife that I really need to go shopping.

Hey, can you talk to my wife too?

Mine is quite small, compared to others hear, but eventually I'll hit my goal of a 365 day set. [emoji56]

Go to your local antique shop, they should have a flyer that lists all the antique stores in your state.
Fill your tank, and wallet, and go for a nice ride.
Most of my collection has been accumulated this way. I like the little stores best, just cause I don't have to waste much time hunting. We have some hear in Ohio, that are called Antique malls, they are so large you could spend most of a day in just one store. Thankfully they make the sellers put razors in locked glass cabinets, or it would take all day to find them all.
Flea markets....oh baby!!
Lots of wheel n deals at those ( my favorite ). Talk to the guys selling all the cheap, Chinese knives. They may have some that aren't put out on the table, from their private stock.

Open your mind, and your mouth.
I openly talk about straights when I'm out hunting, others over hear the conversation, and the next thing you know is you've got a phone # from a patron who has or knows someone who has straights for sale, or might sell.
" Cheap " !!!

How bad is your RAD...!!

I went to the antique mall in twon and after 45min wandering i asked an employee. She took me to the only one straight in the building. The scales were.cracked. rusted and the front in h of the razor was ground so badly it was thinner than the rest of the blade by an 1/8 or more. Price tag, 125.00. I told her thanks and left.trying not to laugh.

That's too funny, but no I keep them in my safe because I have a dehumidifier in there so no rust long term, but they all fit in a shave mug, seriously I only have 14 razors almost all of them are customs with a couple production vintage razors in the mix. At one time I had about 40 but I have donated and given away the rest. I,m by no means a minamilist but I do like to keep it simple and use one or 2 razors most of the time. Tc
