Went out to the flea markets today to pass time before the big game and had horrible luck. I kept finding old rotted and broken razors and the vendors kept telling me how I "just missed" some great razor a couple days ago!
Eventually I came across a pretty nice cheap one. I think I have to hold off my RAD for a bit but I've been wanting to try a Droescher. :shrug:
It looks to be in great shape. Congrats!
Just be glad youve got Razors in your flea markets. Weve got nothing around here and the stuff the Antique markets have they think is made of gold. Looks to be a pretty solid razor.
yep, it's similar here. anything that isn't broken or rotted to the point of no return is $75+ it is insane.Quote:

That's a nice one and it should be an easy cleaning job.
My sweet girlfriend bought me a S.R. Droescher "Black Smith" as a Christmas present.... It is a typical wonderful Solingen shaving machine! You will love yours....here's my surprise Christmas blade...
Awesome looking blade, it seems huge in that picture. How wide is it? The one I have looks much smaller. (talking about razors here)Quote:

It is 13/16ths.... I believe it is more early to mid 1920's...Quote:
