Winchester Straight?

[Vinny Bobo]

I was at the Winchester house in San Jose and saw Winchester straight razors in the display case! Has anyone else seen one of these?

I have seen one or two that were being sold on internet antique shops. They were relatively expensive which I would have expected given their heritage and Americas love for such things.

I've got one restored, and it is a fantastic shaving razor

I've had a number through the shop over the years. Here are some shots of the one that I held on to. It's a 5/8" spike point. The scales are a translucent celluloid in a faux tortoise shell pattern. The marking on the monkey tail that got cropped in the 2nd close-up shot is No. 8528. I'm sure there are some Winchester collectors out there who could date this razor from that pattern number. Enjoy!
