Fantastic looking razor. Nice find indeed I like it!

That is a sweet sweet Case. I love Case razors, and I'm also a fan of the clear celluloid (though it seems to like to rot....).

Very nice find! She'll shave you well

Congrats on a great find! I also like the looks of this one andthe shaves should be killer! :tu :tu

Nice!

Hope you enjoy it..! :)

Thanks for the comments guys, I spent last night cleaning it out... i will post more pictures later. I was really lucky, shes basically brand new.

Also, thanks for the advice Carrie, i was able to remove that dirt quite well ;)

They are great shavers and fairly hard to come by anymore. Congratulations. What do the tang stamps say on yours?

OMG...that is what I call a beauty :beer1:.

Nothing special I guess, but the scales say "DISQUE'S SPECIAL" on them, so I guess thats special haha.

Whoever "Disque" was...must have been a distributor. Always curious about tang markings. Just ran into an obvious German razor that was stamped and boxed from a merchant in the Mexican state of Sonora, not too far away from me.

Quick update: i cleaned her up and honed her. She is by far my favorite shaver now.

Dental floss, and i owe that to CarrieM's advice :D

Beautiful! you did a great job spiffing it up. Nice looking point on the blade too, but be careful around your ears. Something I do to clean under the tang, besides flossing, is to try and slip a little piece of 2000 grit wet/dry sandpaper between the tang and scales, and saw it gently back and forth, rough side down. Gets stubborn stains off the tang, mostly. Sometimes the fit is too close for that to work.
