Added a few more
The first lot I snagged because of the Mint Friodur Inox of course, also, the W&B is very nice with scales showing an imprint of a man holding a Trident (original?) and I really like the Jaques LeCoultre Au Sentier. The last two should clean up just fine. $40.00 for the three was terrific.
Lot 2 has a Union Razor Works NY. a Worcester Razor and a 1912 Jos. Hollenger barbers leader. $35.00 for the 3.
Lot 3 has a razor simply marked 'The Winner' , a second blade unmarked but has interesting sculptural lines to it but what I wanted was the F.Reynolds with " The old English Razor" scales. These will clean up nicely as well. All 3 for $30.00.
Lot 4 is a Boker triple pin, a Blue Steel "independent" which has beautiful heat coloring across the shaft and tang and the piece I really wanted in this lot was the Ek Seb set in cracked ice laminated over deep translucent orange scales. $35.00 for the 3
And the last which I paid the most for, $40.00 ,, is the W.R. Case & Son, Bradford Pa. which has beautiful butterscotch scales in perfect condition. This blade will clean up nicely as well.

This word "few"... I do not think it means what you think it means.
It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

Thanks guys,
By a 'few' , my usual hauls are usually around 6 - 12,, at times it has been as many as 40. I have another 35 or so coming this week and very soon I'm going to look at a collection of 200 ( + -) . My collection is around 250 or so.

You're half right!
I've always said I'm a cross between the TV shows "American Pickers" and "Hoarders". I find 'em and keep 'em. My list of restorations I don't think will ever go down. But, it's all in my quest for a 365 day set. A razor a day keeps the whiskers away.

Some beautiful razors. I know that in your hands they will become pristine. Hurry up and get your 365 razors so you can start spreading the bounty of your finds and excellent restoration work.

mycarver could you post a another picture of the last razor pictured, the Independent B&B Sup. Co. please showing the other side of the blade and the full profile? I have a razor with a similar if not the same design stamped on the tang, I am trying to find more information on it. Do you know if it is a German razor? Mahalo
