Thread: Some Straights I recenlty Aqquired

Hello,
It's been awhile since I posted anything on the forums. So, I figured I would share my recent purchases with you guys. The first three razors in the pictures I bought yesterday from a flea market. The first razor, I can't make out the first intial, is ? & H Cutlery Co. and is also stampe "Warranted, New York", the second razor is Boker 'King Cutter" and the third is a Tripoli Special. I had to clean, polish and hone all of them. I did try the Boker yesterday and it's definitely a nice shaver!! I can't wait to try the other two. The fourth razor is an John Pritzlaff and has '096" stamped on it. It too is a good shaver. I bought the fourth one off of Ebay a few weeks ago. That one actually came shave ready, I just had to clean up the scales and blade a little bit. I hope you like them. I also bought a J. Moreton & Co. but had to replace the scales on it. So, I posted that one in the "Custom and Restoration" part of the forum. Thank you for looking!! Also sorry the pictures are not that great, my camera is not the greatest.

They look great, I really like the last one.

Nice looking group of razors there. Enjoy em

Yes sir looks like all good finds. The Bokers are known to be smooth shavers. The last one, Pritzlaff, reminds me of some Bokers I have seen.

Thank you, I notice that your in Findlay, Ohio. I got the first three razors at Jamie's Flea Market. Do you know where that is? The gentleman that sold them told me that he will have more straights in a couple of weeks. So, if you want to go and check it out. He was an older gentleman, outside selling a bunch of stuff in boxes..

Welcome to the Boker Brotherhood!

I had to go look at my razors to make sure my Boker King Cutter was still there, it looks just like yours.

Bokers are some very fine shavers known for their 'buttery smooth' shave. Enjoy!
