Thank You, Rez! In appreciation of your comments, I will share a pic of your favorite brand before going to snooze...

The box/swap debacle to come! G-nite! :chapeau
Henckels and carved bone!
:y
While Im waiting on scales in oil, I started on the last of MikeTs razors he sent a Gray, I assume to be from late1700- early 1800s, but haven't done a history search.
Only got as far as disassembly, and a scrubbin with a degreaser. Should be dry and ready for the iron, and sand paper, after work today.

I missed your question earlier Tom. The Case says
Case Bros
Little Valley NY
On the Back
Tested XX
That old stubtail is in exceptional condition Mike and Mike.
(Low soft whistle)
Very little hone wear. Exceptional condition, it is.
That's a beautiful old blade, Mike. And Tom, you are the undisputed King of the 7-Day Set, and the Hero of the Herders!
I'm thinking about working on a 7-Day set of Ern Ators myself (my favorite razor). They would all be Ators; each would go into a different scale material. I've only got 2 so far-time to start haunting ebay again.
Simply amazing! Seriously, those 7 days sets are over the top, and the box with inlaid bone all the way around!
Sets of razors, and awesome boxes, that's what I love.
Some day I will have some cool sets and make some cool boxes for them.
Until then please keep showing these sets of inspiration!
:beer1:
Edit: Dude. The inlaid bone box (no pun intended), sweet!!!
