    Default My weekend Find

    This is what I found at my local Antique shop this weekend. First is a 5/8th THE HAMILTON RAZOR CO. squarepoint with flourescent Pink windmill scales in Very good cond. The goldwash on the blade is a little light,but is still very visible.Second is a 5/8th F.W. ENGELS WEDGE with very nice gun blueing on the tang and monkey tail.I dont think this razor has seen much action because it showed little wear.The hone wear seen in the pics are from me,I got lazy and didnt tape the spine during the bevel set.Shave real nice,as does the pink razor.The Engels had a bloth of rust,when removed left a mark but still looks nice.To bad wedges are not my choice of razors.The third is a 13/16th CARL MONKHOUSE FULL CONCAVE with Emerald Green w/ silver inlay scales,that I got off FleaBay.This razor is on the bench.The goop you see on the scales is Crazy glue.I use it to seal any impurities and seal around the silver inlays whe necessary.I will post pics when she is complete.Im glad I stopped.I cant seem to pass a Antique store without stopping. HAPPY SHAVING AND REMEMBER,dont just pass up the Antique Stores.
