inheritence

Not too long back my Uncle passed away. I inherited a few small things from his collection. The shave set was left to me because he knew I loved collecting and using razors and brushes. The knives I picked out because I liked them. I also received a small case pocket knife and a brass handled walking cane.

The shave set is brass and chrome, I believe the brush is silvertip, I can't quite make out the name of the manufacturer as it has worn off of the decal on the brush handle.

A sheath knife, marked Green Beret x5, limited edition. Hand Made by Saburo. Made from 440 stainless. It can also be locked into a push dagger position as well.

A love of sharp things must run in the family!


Classy shave set.

Very neat, Tony. There's nothing quite like shaving heirlooms. I really like that stand :bow

Thanks guys! Lee, he bought the shave set in the early 90's, looooong before I became interested in straights, but he told me it was mine when he passed. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it way back then lol. I may never use the safety razor, but the brush and bowl will see some use.
