    They are very cool and especially beautiful. Funny my business partners name is Zepp I wonder if his family has a some stashed in the attic, possibly being the heir to the Zepp fortune.
    Yeah Right.

    Ah yes! That's the one!

    I knew I'd seen it, but for whatever reason, I couldn't find the same ad again yesterday. Thank you!

    Yeah Right.
    There may well be a cache of Zepp razors lurking in someone's attic! That'd be cool to find! They made regular straights as well as DEs too.

    I'd bet that suggests the one I got is from earlier in the production.

    Have you honed it up yet?

    I used shoe polish to restore the factory darkening of the letters, just like I'd use Renwax or ... shoe polish, on a shoe.
