Thread: 7 New old razors, a gift.

Well I have some cool news,

My wifes grandpa gave me a really cool gift, 7 in fact. He knew I was into straight razors so he was keeping an eye out for me. He is an antique buyer and reseller. One day he gave me a call that he found some and he wanted me to look at them. He had never looked into straight razors before and said he just got them for me. When I asked what he wanted, he said nothing and that they were a gift for my new found hobby.

Let me know what you guys think, not looking for value, but do you think they would be good to shave with? Thanks

Ya the camera flash kept giving a bad glare so I shut it off and only got fuzzy pics with that.
