Post Your Pictures - The Legendary Bokers

My two bokers. First one is an "OUR OWN"

I don't know which model this is but it was in very rough shape when I bought it. Scales broke while cleaning it up and had to make these.

I found one of these blades in an antique shop for 25$, it wasn't in its original scales but it doesn't seem that rough. It just needs some tarnish and surface rest removed, I think. Do you have any idea what model yours is? I see similar ones that have 1056 on the handle, but mine doesn't, it looks like yours.
 
I grabbed this Boker off a buddy. Can someone tell me an approx age and value?

Its 99% shave ready, it just needs a good stropping, maybe a touch of stone. Im excited to get shaving on this.
 
My Great Grandfather's Boker is now my daily shaver, I polished it with MAAS and honed it on lapping film, it is very sharp and smooth, I love it! it is a 5/8 with no hone wear and the etching on the blade is flawless

4/8 Bone scales...
I recently bought this on BST from a fellow member, arrived just today. I have another 4/8 and I kinda like the smaller size for my shaped beard.
Can't wait to give it a go, tonight.

Here's mine Boker Hindoo 7/8

All it says is Hindoo on the blade and tang. It has a tiny tree on the tail.

I don't know what the scales are made of, but it's OK for right now.

First shave last nite, and second this evening.
Very nice! I do WTG on my cheeks and between my big nose and stash, ATG on my lower lip and neck.
My wifey approves! Great little razor.

Here's a couple of mine. I have a couple more but they need some work before I show them off. These were ebay bargains that turned into sweet shavers. Sadly, I lost most of the "king Cutter's" etching while cleaning it up, but the rust was active and had to go.
