Two new ones.

Found 4 straight razors at an antique shop tied together w/ a rubber band. One had celluloid handles that had outgassed & affected the others.
After I told him they should be thrown out before they affected anything else in the booth, he gave them to me.
I didn't think they were salvageable(had to use pliers to get them open),but tried anyway. Two of the blades crumbled as I tried to clean them. One had a good blade but a broken handle. Stole the handles off one of the broken ones & cleaned the blade.
The remaining one just needed a good cleaning & polishing.
Here are the results of a couple hours labor.
