Tuckaway Case (wow)

[simpleguy]

I just got done cleaning (lightly) a Tuckaway case the I recently acquired, wow man did they know how to make some quality stuff back then. It's really beautiful to look at what a shame to get the same quality now a days you would have to get a loan from a bank, oh wait a minute I forgot they or not loaning any $$$ now a days . I'll try my best to be a good custodian so that someone else will enjoy this 100 years from now.

Great razor and case. I find that they shave as well as they look.

Mike, that case you have is a lot better than the one I have. The outside on mine looks great but the inside felt looks like its been thru a few wars, but I think it adds some flair to it .

I haven't used the razor yet, it was a little beat up when I rescued it. The top plate was black and the rest was grubby looking, but after a little cleaning it shined up very nicely except for the top plate, it's kind of pink looking (copper). Is there a way to get it back to the brass color? But it does feel good in the hand, it has some weight to it. I am curious to see how it shaves.
