    Default Good day at the antique shop. (numerous pics)

    I remembered seeing a frameback burried in a display case a while back and thought I'd return and see if it was still there.....
    it wasn't. But this was hidden under a jewelry box in the same case....






    Both spare blades are new. One is still sealed, other has frayed edgesa nd is basically opened.....

    Then I did find a frame back, but on the shelf above it I found this and couldn't pass it up....
    Has anyone seen a box/strop like this before? it's a new one on me.










    I'm so stoked. The ixl is probably going to go to Glen for a redo.

    I know absolutly nothing about either of these razors so if anyone knows a bit about where or when they came from I'd love to learn.

    Thanks!

    Never seen a strop like that. It would be good for travel and keeping the razor safe.

    I haven't seen one quite like that...but I got this one handed down to me from my Great Great Grandfather. I'd love to get more information on it too. Anybody? Bueller?

    What are the dimensions on yours? Mine is just under a foot in length, and 2" wide.
