    Wow, those are absolutely gorgeous. I got a Rodgers a few months ago and it's one of my favorite shavers now.

    Those scales look brand new! I am curious if anyone could explain the difference in wording on the razors and the box. Box says "Cutlers to her Majesty" and the blades say "...THEIR MAJESTIES".

    Yeah, those are gorgeous. If any of you guys find a set similar to that, don't even bother with a thread. Just pm me the payment info. Great score!

    I gotta say that I honed up one of them the other night and had a chance to shave with it last night .... One of the best I have felt. This is the biggest razor I have handled yet but it gave me no grief. Smooth Smooth Smooth.

    I should be able t hone up the other one over the weekend and see if it feels the same. BTW these were/are nearly shave ready as is!! They already pass the HHT and have a very clean bevel. I only touched the other one to my special coticule and that is all it took. I with the tail was a bit longer but that is not a problem.

    I hope I never have too sell it but if the time comes that I do, they will serve any man for a lifetime. For now they serve me and I am a happier man for it.



    Oh, and nice catch on the 'her' and 'their' difference. I would have never noticed. It is interesting though.

    Oh my goodness....my heart stuttered for a second when I saw these classy behemoths. If you only had two razors for a lifetime of shaving, those Rodgers would serve with distinction. Congratulations!

    I have to report that they both honed up extremely well and the edge they took was phenominal.


    I honed one only on a coticule and cro oxide and tested it. Very nice.

    The other I started at #3000 Chosera and then #5000 Chosera and then the coticule and cro ox. The inclusion of the Chosera has made an already awesome razor even awesomer!!


    The second method was the sweet spot. I had four days of growth and a two pass BBS.
