    Default Slow day at the antique shops

    Stopped in at our 3 local favorites today. But only came home with one razor This does complete my pair though. I now have a square point 11/16 to go with the round point. This appears to be NOS, no bevel at all and no hone wear. Still has traces of the oil from manufacturing on it. CarrieM found this marked down 1/2 price. We had to talk for a whole 30 seconds to figure out where the pennies were stashed to pay for it, but it came home with us.

    It was more like.. oh crap.. who's got the pennies to cover this. Can't leave it here. If Holli finds it it will be long gone

    Well thanks for helping me hold onto my money. I've been having trouble doing that recently... I'd have been digging for pennies myself.

    No problem, you would have gotten a nice return on it though.

    Whoa nice find. I swear--everywhere else has better antique stores than here. The stores I go into have the same 1 or 2 horrible condition razors everytime. I guess I have to continue to search for the hog hole of straight razors.
