THAT OLID RAZOR ! ! 
We make new razors, but advise you not to throw away that old 
razor. Perhaps it is better than any new one you can get. Send it 
to us, by mail , together with 30, 40, 50, 60 or 70 cents and we 
will grind, hone and strop it and return it by mail in a condition that 
will please you. The amount of work we put on the razor will be 
according the amount of money sent. 30 cents will secure consider- 
able grinding, mostly at the edge, and a good cutting edge, set ready 
for use. provided the razor is susceptible to taking an edge. 70 cts. 
will secure a full concave, highly polished to a large razor, beside 
honing and stropping. There is less work on a small razor than a 
large one, so the same amount of money will go farther on a small 
than on a large one. 
For common home use we do not advise a full concave, especially 
so if the beard is stiff and hard. 
f^pTo send a razor by mail inclose in a tin case or wind ivith wire. 
If you have no wire and can’t get it conveniently send us word by 
postal and we will send you some by return mail, suitable for the 
purpose. 
We make also all kinds of Broom Tools, Kitchen Cutlery, Cigar 
Knives, Shoe Knives, Photographer’s Knives, and any fine edged 
tools to order from sample or drawing. 
All new goods sent out warranted to do what they ought to do.
