Let's see the Black Friday and beyond scores, lads.

I got a Wardonia in the mail on Friday. I so rarely score anything. Neat little razor, too! I used it for today's shave with a Bic in it. I don't know much about Wardonia razors. This one indicates it was made in France.

Just arrived from daBay. Case exterior has seen better days, interior looks great. Razor looks like it'll clean up. I am particularly pleased with the blue GUARANTEE slip, and the strop appears to be in it's original wrapper. Neat!

That is sweet. Thomas Ward & Co. made razors in France and Italy back in the day. Don't see a lot of French ones. Well Done!

I just stumbled across it on ebay.... I don't even recall what I was looking for, but I thought it was neat looking so I bid on a whim. It caught a plane here from France so the least I could do was pop a Bic in it and take it for a test drive.

It had to happen someday...
Just bought a straight razor just to practice some honing.

Way too scary for me, so this one will go to a friend ;-)

It's an Ontario Cutlery razor, I sadly do not know anything of it but I assume it is a very common, everyday razor.

Hey Barry,

when your ready to pull the trigger on a bottle of this one, shoot on over to Holt Renfrew. They will have a bottle waiting for you. Who knows, Christmas is just around the corner & maybe the family could fit one nicely in the stocking
