Thanks MB,
the Clauss is unused from what I can determin. The container is a little scruffy, but it is a nice pair. I like them all, really. Didn't know what nice razors I had. The Rodgers has a horn handle. One thing I did learn from you and that was to use mineral oil on knives. Thesr razors were dry and unatractive, but the mineral oil made them stand out. I celebrated by taking a swig of the stuff to start the evening off and am now headed for a casual stroll in the woods. Thanks again MB.

Thanks Draac,

They sit in my display and draw quite a bit of attention when guests come over ..... I usually get, " So, why do you collect these ? "

I just tell people I like sharp objects, LOL.

"Miller Bro`s" that is a sweet razor. I have never seen one like that, I've seen knives with nudes on them but never a razor. Are they hard to find ?

I picked up a couple of razors the other day. The top one is stamped, "H. Boker& Co." The blade is stamped, "PEARL". The tangs are genuine mother of pearl. needs to have the handle repaired. a piece is mising at the pivot point. Other than that it's a beauty. Original box. Handle has a Boker tree stamped in it.
The bottom one is stamped, "Norvell Shapleigh HDWE Co./ St. Louis on the front of the tang. Stamped "Germany" on the back. The length of the front handle is some sort of a wading bird. No cracks. Great shape. Original box.
I like these old razors but I don't get very msny of them.

STRAIGHT RAZOR HIBBARD SPENCER BARTLETT ART NOUVEAU NUDE LADY

Got this over the weekend on Ebay...I thought it was worth the $40.00 I won it for, It's very unusual.

Description: An art nouveau nude lady w/flowing hair and gown w/background of lily and leaves/etc. Handles are ribbed and reddish colored. Blade is clean but does have oxidation. One spot on handles toward bottom where blade enters looks to have a little wear/discolor - but overall a real pretty nude razor and by a good retailer - Hibbard, Spencer , Bartlett & Co.
