Thread: Just inherited 2 80 year old razors!

80 years by itself is not that special. Many here have razors of 150 - 200 years old.

But what makes your razors special is that they have a personal history that you can trace along your bloodline into the past. That is a very special, personal and unique thing. And if you take good care of them, you can pass them on to your kids / granddkids and you will be a part of that legacy too

Welcome to SRP. As others already indicated: everything you need to know, you can find here.

The razors are in reasonable condition. The W&B barber notch looks like it has some hone wear but it is not too bad. I often restore razors that are heirlooms. The connection with the family is much more valuable.

This is one such razor, and brush that I restored.



This is the razor alone.
