I was talking to my dad about my new found hobby of shaving with a safety razor, and he mentioned that his dad had used a cut-throat when he was alive. My dad dug the blade out and tried to clean some marks off it with a tissue, cutting himself as he did so :lol: (I'm 46, I never knew my grandad, so I'm guessing that blade has been stored un-oiled and unused for at least 46 years, and is still sharp enough to cut a man easily - though it didn't pass the hanging hair test.)
It's says "Solingen" on it (which I believe is good), but then also Lindbergh (or Lindenbergh, not sure).
Is it an ancient and valuable antique??? Or should I just get it professionally restored and turned into a working family heirloom do you think?
