Hey Brother
Remember the beautiful fruitwood shaves I told you about??
It was W Johnson out of Newark. Some of our best American shaves, from near the civil war, and often in beautiful condition?? (people just couldn't use them too much, too pretty)

Here you go, don't let this one get away. Good as it gets.  And under 20 bucks.

Oh, anther one you want eventually, a Millers Falls round shave. Nothing else cuts a tighter curve.
I would hold out for better condition, but just sayin, this is the model you want. Notoriously hard to sharpen but when they are cookin, its a delight to use.
