    Default Old Brush

    Hi, I received a very old brush (must be 50 years old at least), but still in good condition. How do I clean this brush ?
    Thx
    Chris

    Nice looking things. Is their a reason why you don't use the Henkels? It looks to have seen some use but still looks serviceable. Henkels made some great razors so you could be depriving yourself of real pleasure.

    Well, next week I'm going to learn to horn a razor...In the blade of the Henkel is a curve, I'm not shure if it will raze good.......But I'll try, and I let you know if it works....
