Bagged a lovely THIERS ISSARD off the bay!

Well it'll probably need a hone and polish but for the price i figure it was a good deal.

Cheers Henry, you know i kept missing out on all these bargains on ebay, nice razors that seemed to get sniper bidded in the last few seconds of the auction, so its nice to see karma finally being nice to me

Looks like this razor is going to be fine, sent it away to Steve at the Invisible Edge for a overhaul and its cleaned up nicely, just needs some time on the stones now and its good to go.

Got the TI back from Steve Dempster on Monday. He did a decent enough job. I would have liked the pins a bit tighter as the blade is a bit floppy but i'm guessing he did what he could, as you can see in order to remove some corosion the 'Le Dandy' on the actual blade is quite faded now but its a lovely straight! Here is a couple of photos

 

[thanks]

Nice score!

Very nice find!

Its fast become my favourite razor. I still alternate with my Dovo and rarely use my DE razor, in fact its hard to recall the last time i had a DE shave....

Very nice score. You did really well, I bet it shaves really great.

Nice score! Just don't try slicing up those pine apples with it! (Or your adam's apple for that matter.)
