Ebay home run!
Got my latest lot in today. I was pretty blown away. Only ONE cracked scale on the old Freddy R. Some minor edge issues on a few more. ONE IVORY HANDLED BROOKS AND CROOKS even if it is a tiny little thing.
The old Miller Bro's rope knife is decent. Some bonehead buffed at the blade. Blade is tight and snaps like it's supposed to. Scales are about perfect.
The GRAEF with the MOP tang looks nearly new. It's also marked on the back as I have seen pocket knives marked that were salesman's samples.
Blade is shiny, doesn't look that way in the pic.
The Robeson looks like it will hone up easy. The rest will take a bit of work, but not near as much as some in the last lot I bought.
The Christenson from Brockton, Mass is interesting. The tang stamp is very much like the stamping seen on old guns of that era. Appears to be a very well made razor.
I'm happy.

They all look pretty good, Wullie.
You've got a lot of polishing ahead of you.
I liked the old knife too.
