    Default The IXL PIPE Shop

    Gentlemen,
    For your viewing pleasure, a room of Wostenholm treasures to be enjoyed... no need to look forthe lazy beat cop trying to shake you down because you are smoking indoors!

    Here is my first one... it was an e- bite special, still needs work my guess is that the razor was stored in the bathroom. the corrosion occurred in the areas not protected by the scales.

    Here are my three Wostenholm's.....the blade-only is my favorite. I can't wait to get a nice set of black & white ebony scales on her! The second one was my very first Wostenholm and the third still needs to be cleaned up.

    When I get home in a few weeks I'll have some new razors waiting for me and I think 1 or 2 are Wostenholm's.....so I'll make sure and get them up here as well!

    Will any Wostemholm do or does it have to be a pipe?

    I got the impression that any Wostenholm is welcome.....it just didn't fit well into the thread name....

    Here is a 7/8 half hollow IXL restored by Bill Ellis. The scales are desert ironwood. This is my overall favorite shaver.
