Show off your Straights!

Polishaver if you want to send it to me, I will hone it for you. No charge. Shoot me a PM if you're interested.

Here's my latest:  a "No Name" 7/8 round point re-scaled and honed by Lou Mowan.  I snagged the blade off of eBay for a song from a fellow in the U.K.  Never heard of the brand, but from its Solingen origin and blade shape, I suspect it might have been made by ERN.  (But I don't know.)

Brad, that's a beauty.

What Freddy said. Wow, nice.

Brad, that's a beauty.

Thanks, Freddy. It just arrived and after comparing it to my ERN blades, I do believe it probably came out of the ERN WALD factory. I plan to take it for a spin tonight and (hopefully) post an SOTN pic tomorrow.
