    Default Boker King Cutter Near Mint.

    I just picked this up cheap. A Boker King Cutter. Very near Mint I haven't wiped it off yet in the photo.

    I think I will swap out the scales on it for the white ones I have shown in the picture.

    I will post follow up pics here.





    I will swap out the scales for these:

    Would that be considered Near Mint or Near NOS?

    Not sure if you cleaned that Boker yet, but a word of caution from experience, Flitz and most other metal polishes used by hand will remove the gold VERY quickly! Good luck with it.

    Great find! I found an 11/16 round point on ebay about 4 months ago and I love it. It was in great shape and somehow I got it for just under $30. I am always looking for a 6/8 round point with white scales like yours. Enjoy that smooth shaver!
