You need some 9/8's or at least a 8/8 in there somewhere. Big blades need their own pouches and they encourage all types of road rage on long trips.

Should have left the pouch on the chair... Now that would have been a coservation piece at the airports.. Restaurants, and business meetings..
I love the creativity of the case, looks well executed too. Beautiful razors! Thanks for sharing!
You're absolutely right, so I got an 8/8 T. Ascher Masonic razor. It should be here soon.Quote:

At the International Exposition of 1889 Rameau was awarded a silver medal.

There is evidence that Rameau use a Medaille stamps on their razor after 1889.

That said we can assume that the razor is between 1851-1888?
Also in a "Rose-Croix" (Rosicrucian) directory from 1935 there was a doctor Roustan???
Excellent info! Thank you!Quote:

Beautiful razors - and thanks for the reminder! I picked up a chunk of leather a couple of months ago intending to make a travel case something like yours. It's long past time to get to work on that!
I have another, much larger pouch too. I think it holds 12 razors. It's been a very long time since I used it. But at some point I'm going to use the last large bit of leather to make one that's not kind of bodged-looking.Quote:
