Default FS 5/8 Sterling Cutlery Co. by Boker

This 5/8 round point blade was apaprently made for Sterling Cutlery Co. by Boker. It has the appropriate Boker scales with the tree brand logo engraved. The back of the blade is marked Made in Germany HB & Co. (Heinr. Boker & Co.) with the tree brand logo engraved on the tang. This blade centers between the scales and is shave ready. The blade has a nice shiny finish although there is evidence of a few water stains.
Reduced
I'm asking $50 shipped CONUS.

Uhm, I'm confused - this one should have been gone by now - bokers are said to be great shavers and this one seems in very nice condition. Plus it's one of the earlier models.
The round point fans should be quite excited about it. If it stays for a bit more I may overlook the round point and finally try out a boker!

Martin, for the benefit of the newer members is this one honed, or can it be before sending out?

This is a great Boker the only reason I haven't nabbed it is because it would make a newby a great razor. But if no one wants it I may come back and pick it up tonight.

One of these days in your travels, a guy is going to show you a brand-new deck of cards on which the seal is not yet broken. Then this guy is going to offer to bet you that he can make the jack of spades jump out of this brand-new deck of cards and squirt cider in your ear. But, son, do not accept this bet, because as sure as you stand there, you're going to wind up with an ear full of cider.

The only reason I haven't snatched this one up is I just bought a Boker Red Injun blade and another Boker the day before. Otherwise, this would be mine in a flipping heartbeat. Please some one take it; I feel I've been hoarding the Bokers on here lately.

Hello!

I'm intrested in the blade, no problem shipping it to Sweden I suppose?

Do hope it is a great blade for a beginner, only 2 shaves with a straight, but still (knock on wood) no bloodstains!

Please, mail me details 'bout shipping and payment and such...

Best regards

Clas

Best way to show intent to purchase is to Send a PM to the seller by clicking on the username and then choosing "Send a private message to ..." After doing that, simply reply in the thread that you "have sent PM."

The seller will then let you know if you are the purchaser, what shipping might cost and acceptable forms of payment.

good for you, although it looks like somebody may have been a bit faster, in which case there will certainly be more razors.
