These are the razors. I think they are all in pretty good shape. Comments please.
I did some reading on the forum of how to start shaving. I think I'll give it a try. But I think they need some sharpening and stroping first. Don't have a clue how to do that.
cool looking lot.
I will hone a couple for free to get you started.
Pm me if interested.
Unbelievable !!!!
Very very nice score....
Wow, you are blessed man. I see some very nice razors in there!
Can you give us the writing on each tang?
Very lucky! Get them honed up by someone who knows what they're doing and get yourself a nice strop, brush, mug and soap and you're good to go. :) Oh, and for ones you don't plan to use right away do some reading on this site for long term storage strategies to keep them nice as they are. Camelia oil, etc...
Markevens asked for the writing on the tangs. Here are pics of the tangs.
And the rest.
Thanks for sharing.. You are indeed lucky.. Nice score I am sure you will enjoy shaving with them.
You have some very nice razors there. Get them honed and enjoy.
You are very lucky indeed! Very nice lot.
Enjoy them all once they are all honed that is.
You've got some real sweethearts on there. I would definitely take mainaman up on the offer to hone. In the meantime, you'll just need a strop, brush, and some soap to get started. Check out the wiki on how to get started shaving with these guys.:)
You are very lucky to have gotten such a nice lot of razors! The Finedge razors live up to their name, and are superb shavers. They are easily dated, too. They were all made between 1921 and 1923, per Goins'. I have several and love them all, especially the ones with bone scales.
