Well, RAD is in full swing here at the 'ol rancho. I do realize that beauty is in the eye of the beholder; but I fell in love with this beauty when I first laid eyes on it.

The scales are an orange-yellow-pink combo that really iridesces.

Honed by Lynn, I'm really looking forward to this shave!
I really like it - very cool and different. Makes me think I should name my razor...
Thank you for your comment. This one was just different enough to catch my eye. I've shaved with a straight razor for 40+ years but never thought about vintage straights until recently.Quote:

With watches and straights, if I see it, like it, and have the funds, it's a no-brainer. Too many regrets otherwise ;)
I picked this one up from Jim Ayars of Vintage Blades LLC. He took a lot of time answering my many questions. I hope to use it today and will report back!

Great looking razor mate

how does it shave?

I saw that one on the 'bay and had it in my watch list for a long time. Congrats and I am glad i has found a new home.
There should be a cover that slides over the razor, but most razors of that style have lost the cover because it is very thin and fragile celluloid.
