    Default Todays antique finds.

    Today I dropped by an antique shop and thinking i'd just peek about I came across a pretty sweet find.

    Carborundum hone,
    Frictonite 00 hone
    2 coticules
    Franz swaty
    Three Line swaty
    Three Stones I have yet to ID.
    Two Dubl Duck razors one is in good shape the other has some hone wear. I'll restore them both up at some point and see how they go.
    All seem to be in great condition except the one Dubl Duck.

    Not a bad trip.

    Nice! I'm also just really jealous. I'd also like to suggest you buy a lottery ticket today, as it seems you've got the golden touch today.

    Nice haul, but I wouldn't trade you population densities for all the hones on the planet.

    Wow, I wish there was an antique store around here that stocked anything pertaining to razors. I had some crazy old guy at the flea market last week tell me that straights are illegal here

    I normally don't do well in my home area, but when I travel to see my wife's parents I typically do pretty well. This was a right place right time stars where in alignment with pluto and the tide was at just the right level. I will be keeping my eyes out at that location though just in case.
