A Kastor and Bros

[Don Barbiere]

Found a straight razor in antique place, it says A.Kastor and Bros, the blade looks descent, may be a good restore project.No dings on the edge itself. The scales are broken.Any feedback on those razors? Is it worth the 25$ they are asking for? I think its kinda too much but what do i know? May be i can bring it down a little?
Here is a picture of razor but dont have a picture of the blade. May be later i can go and snap one with my crappy I phone camera!
Its the one with the yellowish scales! Thanks!

If the Henckels next to it was in good shape I would have grabbed it too!

It was not bad ,just kinda small,i am take this one razor at a time,before i spend money on more razors,i am pretty sure there is a learning curve,i amy just pick up some more razor but well below that price,just to practice!

Understood. Good luck on your restore. It looks pretty good so I think you will do well.
