    Default A few local finds......

    I got out of work a little early yesterday and did a little hunting on my way home and had a great day. All three razors were basicly a steel and just needed very minimal clean up. Sorry no before pics, I was to excited to get my hands on them. And the big bounus was the F.W. Engles was shaving nicely after a good stropping. So here are my new finds check em out!!!

    Man, pretty as freak. I'm kinda jealous.

    I never think to make the Antique Mart run after a short day. Every time I get a sharp shaver from a find, it has $@*! scales. Those end caps couldn't be much nicer.

    I hope you spent $300 for the trio and got a parking ticket. And it rained. And...nah, I'm just jealous.

    Congrats on the local finds. All are beautiful razors! Finding razors at local shops and flea markets is my preferred method to obtain razors and We've found some as nice as your's are. They're out there. Ya just have to invest some time and be patient.

    Aren't local finds just GREAT?!
