March Haul 2022

[Dave in KY]

Friend in Canada is sending this my way. A friend there passed away and he was selling shave items for the estate. I asked if the mug was there when I bought a razor back I sold him years ago and it wasn't. Months later now he said he got another box to liquidate and it was in it. Said he was sending it free of charge due to my generosity to him in the past. I'm giddy like a school girl. Now I'll have my backup Wchnu   Hope the video link works ?

Veddy nice!!!  Good things happen to good peoples!!

$7.50 seemed reasonable for the Vintage Williams and a Brush to Restore. Also the 3D printed razors from SlimGem Thanks Roger !!

Love that brush!!

Thanks Fuzzy

I'm smug.
I just won a Kampfe HR-10A (or maybe an HR-6A). Boxed with 4 blades.
On Hazelkorn's rarity scale it's a 5 out of 6. Rare. Valued $150-$300 quite a few years ago.
How much did it cost me? An arm and a leg? No! $35.
eBay sellers are daft. It was described as a
"Vintage Safety Razor A.J Jordon Sheffield" - not the manufacturer but the importer.
I spotted it by accident. 

Just awesome!  Beautiful razor there.

Thanks. It arrived today. On closer inspection (the back was not visible on eBay) it's an HR-6A. Even better. 1896 instead of 1900.
It is boxed with 5 mostly decent looking blades. I need to get some of them honed.
No visit to the replater for this one

But, how does it shave?

Not good   but it can give good hot water for my scuttles. So it has a use!!

I might be a touch jealous of that one!!!

Thank you. It looks like the hair was trimmed poorly. I wonder if it is salvageable. If not I do have a spare Zenith in a cheap plastic handle I could steal a knot from. I think it's the right size.

Pretty certain they were all 24mm. The number was and indicator of how tall the hair was on the loft.
