Default My pics from Ohio

OK so here are my pics from Ohio. I don't have a giant camera like Bill as seen in the pictures so they are not all that great but it gives the idea. You can see the razors in front of where I, the guy in a green jacket and grey shirt was standing in some shots. Those and the travel hit are my contribution to the mass of stuff.

At the end you will see some groups of razors. Sorry but the macro seems to be malfunctioning. The first one is some razors I aquired from a certain member and from the Antique Mall right near Lynn's house. Lynn your slipping... These should be long gone! Not the Chandler and the Near Mint Engels. It has what seems to be factory hone wear on it but that is it. it even has the titanium plating.

The second group are project blades that I came across and need work but I couldn't turn down for the price. Also notice the 2 sided barber hone that I got for $5.

The last group are razors I brought with me to sell and didn't so I will sell them here. Lynn bought 4 of my razors, Taz 1 and MitchBexley 1. These razors will probably go to my list in a day or two. Notice the reflection in the bone one. That is what I mean by mirror polish. It was 70% spider rust when I started. Now look. No maker on that one except that Tommy said he picked it up in sheffield. Seems to be holding quite and edge.

Hi Chris! Thanks for the photos! I've had my eye on that Engels from the Medina antique mall for awhile - but I'm glad you bought it! Glad you also made it back safely! Nice to meet you! RalphS.

Got the price down half of what it was since the lady was there... I took the figural too.

Thanks for coming to the event. I really appreciate your contributions towards making it a great couple of days, especially the ongoing polishing and honing demos.

Great pics. Thanks for putting them up.
