Looking for straight razors

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, bit of an odd one.

 

Looking for some straight razors that I can refurb for my own collection, so not looking to spend too much per razor or can trade for something

 

Brands such as:

Böker
CV Heljestrand
Dorko
Dovo
George Wostenholm
J.E. Bleckmann
Joseph Wostenholm
Joseph Elliot
Joseph Rodgers
Le Grelot
Le Jaguar
Mappin & Webb
T.R. Cadman & Sons
Taylor
Thiers Issard
Wade & Butcher

 

Pretty much anything that has "SHEFFIELD" or "SOLINGEN" on the blade

 

If it has any of the following I probably won't be:
Chips in the blade edge

Lots of pitting or substantial rust

Hone wear on the spine

 

If you have a razor and want to give it a good home, please make your way into my inbox!

 

Thanks :)

dude, i'm in sane, for the very same name! 

top quality steel. :)

 

 

Doing a Taylor Witness at the moment. Just cleaning up the blade. Going to give it that brushed stainless look and then do new handles from acacia acuminata with brass fittings and pins.

They make great grafting knives.

 

That they do. I've got an E.M. Dickinson 'Invicta King' from the 1920s doing all my seedling and pere grafting work. Absolute workhorse
