Sawbuck is $10 from the Roman numeral X which resembles a sawbuck.

I will post some good pictures of that fine blade.

Roman numeral X = 10

Sawbuck = 10 bucks.
Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.

You know how much a sawbuck is?

Received the razor. It is cruddy. Blade is beyond belief. I might soak the blade in vinegar for a week to remove the rust. Then clear coat just because. Here are some before pictures.

Just refresh the edge a little. Like Fuzzman says, "All razors shave the same".

Make sure you have a good lather.  Rolleyes

Well with the serrated edge. It will be good for cutting bones.

That IS the gnarliest razor and blade I have ever seen. Cannot wait to see the "after" pics.
