As promised...
Decided to hit the local flea market since my dad had told me he'd spotted some guys with vintage shave gear,after an encounter with an insanely priced cased NDC Super Speed,equally insanely priced(and broken)straight razor as well as saving overpriced dealer guy's wife from slitting her thumb open to the bone on the previously mentioned straight razor I kept wandering and found this little beauty 2 rows down priced for 10.00 but managed to talk him down to 7.00.

That looks like a keeper!!! Certainly an outstanding price - nice find!!

We all find "insanely priced" razors both in the wild and on eBay . . . but these good deals do make their way to the surface every now and then.

(Photo tip: If your camera has a macro setting, using it will make your razors "pop" right out of the photo. If it doesn't have a macro setting, that is a great excuse to get a new camera!!! The macro button usually has a "flower" icon on it.)

So let us know how that SS works out for you! Enjoy the shave!

Thanks for the photo tip and I'll look into the settings.
While I'm generally up on most things technical this is really SWMBO's camera(aside from the off razor pic and my railfanning)and being a graphic designer sets most of the settings for maximum data in the image as in graphic design and photo manip you can always take out extra data you don't need,very difficult to put in what you don't have.
