    Default Antique Mall Find

    Found this at a local antique place. One scale is cracked, and the case is beat up, but the blade is in great shape and most of the etching is still visible.

    I'm looking forward to working it up!

    Original Pipe Razor. 5/8??

    Clean it up, hone it, and use it, mine are good shavers!

    You didn't happen to pick that up in Wilmington did you?

    No. At Rosebud Antiques in Countryside/Lagrange. She had a little shoebox with a couple of SR's in it. The name sounded familiar, and when I saw "Sheffield" on it, I figured what the hell...why not. Definitely not what I got coming in the mail, but I think it will clean up nice.

    Theres one similar to it at an antique store in Wilmington. I have one in my collection already, so I passed on it.

    Interesting thing about the one I have, it has the pipe stamped on the one side, nothing on the other. No etching on the blade, and no manufacturers info opposite of the pipe.
