    Some low budget razor porn for you gentlemen:

    Here's a few I picked up on the Bay a few weeks ago, and 2 more antiquing today.
    1st lot from ebay- $32
    Bought it for this Tennis, didn't know what else I'd end up with so I probably paid too much:


    ...but i ended up getting lucky with this Torrey in decent condition. Some really persistent stains, but starting to come up now that I'm sanding it



    Lastly- this is probably a junker. Anyone ever heard of Blackstone?



    Then on my 1st trip out ever Antiquing for razors:

    This WB Barber's notch is in better shape than it looks in this pic. Mostly fine surface rust. Worth the $18 to me considering what I paid on my last WB:



    And my 1st Duck!



    A few spots of light rust on the back, but some nice bluing.

    Can't wait to get back home to clean em up and hit em on the hones!

    looks like a few weekends worth of fun. Are you going to rescale any of them?

    Tennis is keeping its scales. The WB and Duck are in decent shape for now. Might just keep em stock. The Torrey will definitely need some work.

    Excited about the WB though. Even though it doesn't need em, I may go after that one next.
