    Scales don't leave until Glenn gets the blade and Jordan has signed the SRP lifetime obligatory contract of shaving with us as his chin sprouts! It shall turn out well!

    Oh, Jordan! You owe me the Texas Box!

    ahhh, i'm not sure i can let you have that! as that is also an heirloom.
    i can send you a few buckaroos via paypal or something, at least to pay for your shipping cost since youre so generous!
    as for the shaving thing, i dont plan on using the dubl duck, but hopefully after i see how that one turns out, i'll get the Texas one restored for use

    They razor was possibly imported. I had a German made Black Demon razor with Weichsel's mark on the other side of the tang. T.Noonan & Sons was another importer of the BD razors but they were in Boston. You may find a country of origin stamp once it's cleaned up.
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.
