I think I need serious help. I don't shave with a straight and don't have any real intention of doing so anytime real soon (still working on my DE skills). But I can't help buying the damn things. They are so beautiful. I was on a DE antique mall crawl today and came across this one and snagged it for 18 bucks as it seemed in very good shape. Edge is real nice and only a couple of spots on the side of the blade. I'd be interested and grateful if anyone could describe what this thing is for me. I measured and it seems to be either a 7/8 or 13/16 blade, but if anyone could give other information (possible age, type, etc. I'm not even familiar with the nomenclature but am trying to learn).
I'd like to know what I picked up as for the time being it is mainly going to be something for me to look at and go "oooooooh"
