I'm darn sure I've read something about this -- I read every page of the SE forum over Xmas last year -- but I can't find it now.
Ron's praise for his Damaskeene OC got me thinking. Coincidentally I have a 1912 here on the desk, getting ready to PIF it to a brother. So I looked at Ron's pic of his razor and then I looked at this one and it looks like they may have just cut off the bar joining the teeth.
It's not quite that, I'm sure. The Dammy OC looks like it has 12 teeth; the 1912 has 13. Whether that's the equivalent of "rivet counting" I'm not sure.
I have another 1912 I was also thinking of PIFing but I could be convinced to try turning it into an OC. Only paid $2.50 for it, but on the other hand I don't want to wreck it just to prove that was a bad idea.
Am I nuts? On the verge of enlightenment?
It's my retirement plan. It'll probably be worth three bucks when I'm 65.
O.H.
