    Default new finds

    So yesterday i was at my local antique shop and i found a box of old razors five straights and 1 DE. I found a Boker Kingcutter, a clauss, a L.B. black diamond, a W&B keen Shaver, a W&B barbers use and the DE is a old Gillette adjustable with a date code G4(if anybody knows what year that is please let me know) And i got all these for 100 bucks so im pretty happy. Sorry for the bad quality of the pictures i used my Iphone.

    Congrats on what seems like a nice find!

    The date code G4 on the DE means it's made in the last quarter of 1961.

    You, my friend, stumbled onto a pot of gold! Nicely done.

    I clearly didn't go *quite* deep enough into Southern Ontario on my travels last month! And let me be the first to say that if you prefer smaller blades, and would like to rid yourself of the Barbers Use, let me know.

    Enjoy them!

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.
