All About Pocket Knives

I am sometimes amazed at the opening bids or Buy-It-Now prices for Robeson razors on EBay. They tend to start in the 70’s and go up to 150 or so.

I have recently gotten two for about 25 dollars each. One was the Masonic/Our Pride in a previous post and I just received this one today. I paid $22.50 for it.

For whatever reason, I’ve never had a Bamboo handled razor. Some refer to these as skeleton or finger bone handles, but having slept in bamboo in Viet Nam, I know it when I see it.

It has a nice, full, deep etch on it.

I don’t buy plain Jane razors like black or white handled ones, unless they predate 1900. I like fancy handles or self-advertisers.

I think this one is pretty nice and I can probably sell it down the road for more than I paid.

Photos should expand with a left click or two.

I'm not a razor guy myself, but that one is really neat!

That is a classy looking straight razor. Off and on I've tried to use straight razors but never had much success.
