just came back from vancouver island, i never knew my uncle was a straight shaver back in the day. some of these were his fathers... they will stay with the family but im gonna have them fixed up and shining in no time, 1 has had its temper %$^&ed over some how and 2 are badly overhoned but i have high hopes for the rest...
Nice ones, what kind of scales are you thinking about putting on the blade only razors?
wow my computer is slow. ill upload the rest in a bit, no plan on scales just yet. ill give that some thought at work today hehe.
wow, your Uncle had great taste, a Henckels, Boker, and the rest.
Apart from the overhoned razors, thats a nice group.

i have a few more pics to post after i get home from work today, my brother is getting the fama straight. itl be his first venture into straight shaving
I really like your FAMA, but can't make out the manufacturer. Is it F.W. Backhaus? Nice French point. (I think)
lucky dog you! :) lol thanks for the pics
Ya they are a pretty nice group indeed I'm not gonna get any acrylic scales done this time, I think it will all be horns bones and woods
these are the rest of the pics, sorry ive had a busy week...
I'm jellous my family likes to throw out what came before them. My great grand pop had nine daughters and eight sons and used a straight, we don't know what he used just that he used a straight. Needless to say we do nto have the blade.
Nice razors, my personal favorite is the Boker King Cutter.
