FS: 4 straights for restoring.

**Hex** · 07-11-2011, 04:01 AM

CONUS only please

I am trying to sell all these together so as to be able to combine shipping. I figured that shipping would be about $2.50 each if bought individually.

I got 3 of these in a grab bag and am throwing the Gold Bug in to whomever buys 2 or more.

SWMBO insists that these need to get out of the house so a package deal is preferrable.

I have no clue as to what they are worth, though the Frederick Reynolds, Sheffield seems to get mentioned on other sites. I priced these as I would price brushes for restoring.

$8.00 + $2.50 shipping, or $35.00, shipping included for all 4.

Separate posts to show each pictures.

1) Box says Genco, Made in USA, Razor says Wester(?) Bros, Anchor Brand, Made in Germany, Manganese steel. The handle looks to be bone. There are quite a few vertical scratches on one side that look like this. Not too deep, but a lot of them: | | ||| || |. It has an anchor symbol behind a star. Blade measures 5 1/4, end to end

2) Box says: Busch Importing Co. Trade Mark (looks like a boy fishing sitting on a razor lol) Solingen Germany.
Handle is cracked through, blade says Mango Steel one side, other side has what looks like a barrell with a + and says D Peres, Solingen. Blade measures 5 3/4, end to end.

3) SOLD No box, handle cracked through, says Manufactured by Frederick Reynolds Sheffield. I can't see any bows/arcs in these like the other. This is a big brute. About 6" long x 3/4 wide. The blade is dirty but I don't see any nicks or dents.
Surprisingly, the handle tests positive for catalin/bakelite. Too bad it's cracked.

4) Gold Bug

Pictures coming
