Default The Boker Brotherhood

Well gents it seems that the brotherhood thread was accidentally destroyed. Please hang your head in a moment of silence for the newly departed! Ok this is just the beginning I know with the help of all my brothers here we can rebuild the club house and make it BIGGER and BETTER than it ever was before. So I am colling all the members of the Boker Brotherhood to gather here and relist your photos and we will so that this is still the first and most fun club in the forums

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.

doc, i warned you about running after foreign razors, now you have destroyed the brotherhood...
i guess instead of a mass shot like last time I'll take pictures of each of them seperately... that will fill up some space.

Default Boker 5/8 Worked back

This is a well traveled worked back 5/8" Boker. Made in Germany, found it's way to the wilds of New Zealand where, after decades it was restored and rescaled by Garythepenman. From there it traveled to the third world (Louisiana) and from there, via Joe Chandler's famous "Band Saw Fire Sale"it made it back to civilization (NY).

this is a link to some tariff's hearings where reference is made to the quality of Boker razors. This was originally posted by potato42 and I hope he doesn't mind my posting it here!
