It's still a cool little compact kit--plus it came from a friend.

Well..... Back to the bone-scaled Sommer.
I took mine and Razorfeld's sage advise and decided that since these scales are fancy I would go with the fancy collars.
Besides, I have a pile of razors waiting for Austin's regular silver collars.
I posted the razor on Custom builts and restorations as I got it honed.

Yep.! It was from a time before twist off's, for bottles, and a time of pull tabs , for cans. Remember opening your can o beer with the pointed end of a can opener.?! Originally Posted by Dieseld

You know, back when I was a kid I was on a beach in the Caribbean and there was a family there who clearly lived on the island. It was a mom, dad, some kids and someone I thought might be grandma. One of the kids hauled a bottle of soda out of the cooler and handed it to grandma. And she opened it with her teeth. Originally Posted by AlanQ

This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

Yes, absolutely, the choice of scales with the Sommer 14 is like peas & carrots! I love those scales Shaun made up. They look as if they belong on a vintage blade.
