It's been a good week or so.

A few nice things turned up in the post in the last 10 days or so.

This is special. A Joseph Mappin Lancet Edge in what I'm pretty sure is elephant ivory scales.

My first "big" blade. Well, the first over an inch. It's a 17/16 of unknown maker. It needs a heck of a lot of work.

And last but no means least, a Livi ATS 7/8 in olive wood scales.

nice catch, beautiful razors. Congrats, John!

WOW! Are you in the market for a 27 yr old adopted son? Those are some beauties-- I know with all of the other things in that collection this will sound weird, but I really like the scales on that Jag. Congrats.

Yes Sir you got some Damn Fine Steel there !!! some very nice and heavy Choppers. I like them all !

Very very pretty razors. Enjoy them :)

Love that Mappin! Hope to hear the shave report after honing. Great scores, all. Congratulations!

John, you get some of the sweetest blades. That Mappin is really striking.

'Hope they give you many many smiles!

Those are very nice. Question about the Mastro Levi, are the scales made out of just one piece?

the lancet is great, and yeah looks like ivory

Wow, this is a very very nice score. Congrats!
