    Default My new Dorko

    Got this one in the mail today I'm a happy camper. It's my first 7/8 razor and according to the person its a 1950's era. If it shaves anything like my 6/8 Dorko I'll own it till they plant me in the ground. Also, my new scuttle in the background.

    Its got 401 stamped on the backside of the tang. Would that be the kind of steel?

    A lady in Nova Scotia makes them. Its called a Moss scuttle. Just google Sara Bonnyman Pottery. I bought the little lather bowl that goes with it too. i keep my soap in it.
