Thread: What are you working on?

Well this ones is interesting. It's not really my kind of thing but it's rare and has historical value. It doesn't look like it seen much Use but it was probably put away wet at sometime. There was a good deal of pitting near the edge that luckily came out on the 1k. Then sanding and polishing on the blade only.

BeJay what brand of razor is this one?

Carl Melchior & Co.

Really interesting piece. Creepy but interesting!

Melchior was a well known supplier of barber supplies. His strops are great and yours is the first razor I have seen.

Nice work BeJay. It is rather unusual.

I have one of those!

You are likely OK hidden down here with it....I would advise against show and tell with it!

I figured I would be safe in this thread. I actually found this on eBay at a very reasonable BIN price. I'm planning to clean it up and sell it for a less reasonable price.

It is an original that's for sure BeJay. And you should be able to get a good price if you can find the right collectors of things from the 3rd Reich



Roy awesome job on that saw. They don't make them like they used too that's for sure.

Jerry I know you're going to get the edge on that razor.

Here ya go BeJay.



Such a controversial tidbit........
