Finally found the time to have pictures taken. They aren't the greatest, but much better than I had taken on my own. This is just about everything I have found in the local antique shops/ flea markets, around here in the last 2 months-ish. Well everything that I chose to purchase anyhow. Some I am currently working on, some I am keeping 'as found' and a few need a lot of work. But, that is the fun part.

i called a few antique stores, and the first couple actually scoffed at my question about razors,
the 3rd one i called said yea, i think i got some.
i went. they had 1 sheffield, 20 bucks, but all rusted and pitted, and so narrow i couldnt believe that it was made that way, same with a couple others, so narrow they looked silly.
they had one with some decent looking bakelite scales, but it too was rusty and pitted and 60 dolllars?!
nothing special thats for sure. couple shave brushes, but they were all busted up
thye had one reallly tiny tiny brush in a mug, wanted like 4o bucks though.
oh haha, and the store owner kept asking what i wanted em for, and even after like the third time i told him its for shaving, he kept telling me i couldnt carry it, how it makes a great weapon, its illegal etc etc.Last edited by The0ctopus; 05-21-2009 at 10:27 PM.

Our pawn shop just closed down. However, there is usually one in every town around here. I will have to take a look. Thanks for the tip.

I went in to a barber/"hidden gems" shop yesterday. Asked him if he had any supplies and he said no, that he had recently gotten rid of everything he had, because they were much to dangerous for anyone to use :S This from a barber.
