Thanks guys. I got lucky, most of the lots go for crackhead prices. The original boxes are a nice touch. The Clauss, Torrey, Bowdin and Bismark need only cleaning, light polishing and honing. The others will need a bit of sanding.
The Bismark most impressed me when I held it. That thing has a good feel to it.
Don't sell that Clauss short. I really don't care for full hollows BUT I have a 5/8 Clauss full hollow square point that will shave with the best of my beloved old Sheffield wedges. ;)Quote:

You will also be happy with that Bismarck. There is a reason it had a good feel to it, Bismarcks give excellent shaves. Mine are some of my best shavers.
Here's the Bowdins Wedge after some cleaning and a hone.

I also vote Clauss. Excellent, and underrated blades.
+1 on the the Clauss
I've been hearing a lot of good things about Clauss razors. I'll have to snag one and give it a try.
