I’m going to start using this thing so any help is really appreciated.
Can't say definitively because you can find one from an estate sale for $5 and one from a razor seller for $50 that he's scrubbed on a bit, many times ruined.That’s great stuff! Pretty awesome that I live just north of Milwaukee!
I wonder what year this thing is and what it’s valued at?
That razor is a gateway drug.
It is well past its prime and its only value is pretty much to get you hooked on shaving like a man.
lol good stuff right there, however how come it's "past it's prime" help me understand that.
The geometry of the blade hint at a much wider one. It lost width due to repeated honing (as indicated by the distance between the spine and where the blade hollows out). It also likely lost width due to some ding repairs.lol good stuff right there, however how come it's "past it's prime" help me understand that.
