Vintage Rolls Razor England 1927 S5884

Description: Vintage Rolls Razor England 1927 S5884 Interesting estate find! At one time, this razor would have been a perfect gift for a young man turning 21. Made and patented in England by Rolls Razor (1927) Ltd., it features an aluminum case with a Greek Key design. The case, approximately 6" x 2 3/4" x 3/4", contains not only the razor, but also a handle, and a honing stone inside one detachable cover and a leather strop inside the other. According to Wikipedia, it was known as "The razor that is stropped and honed in its case." One side of the blade is engraved with Best Sheffield Steel; the other side with Rolls Razor Pat Nos {224.578, 242.718 The end of the handle is stamped with "Rolls Razor 1927 Ltd, Made in England." The blade, after being honed and stropped, can be carefully removed and attached to the handle for shaving. (There are some very informative YouTube videos on how this is done.) Notes regarding condition: The handle is tightly screwed currently, and the buyer will need to work at unscrewing it for use. Conditioning is needed for the strop and the honing stone.There are some scratches in the strop.There are 2 cracks in the honing stone, the result of a previous owner forcing the parts together incorrectly. There is one correct way to do it.Several areas of the piece show some wear and rust from use and age. Please see photos. You, too, can become a whetter, just like the logo on the cover!
