Puma 1938 4/8 Straight razor Excellent with wood coffin case

From Puma....some would argue the best razor manufacturer we have a rare Puma 1938 4/8.
Puma is a wicked sharp shaver but I just don't understand why some guys go crazy over them. Solingen Steel is Solingen Steel...but the hype makes these more expensive. This razor is going for $200-$350 from my sales lists. The others I see available right now are in other countries and priced on the high side...I'm a reasonable man...always looking to move on to the next razor. So this is a steal at $210.00
You get the original wood coffin case that is missing from most Puma's. I have sold 5-6 of those for $40 each. You have the tang guard still in tact. All of the face data is easily readable. Razors that have been salvaged over and over usually see significant decline in that regard. The sticker on the back side of the scale is still present. Another rare feature...and it's a factory 4/8" which is also uncommon.
Sharpness test...it's cutting hairs but un-honed by me. With an 1/8th under the standard I don't want to work on it. I will say if you want it honed and if you want to pay $45 more I will hone it for you.
As is and priced accordingly with a substantial discount from other sellers. Also keep in mind if you spend $300 this month you can save 25% off your entire order. So pick up a couple razors and you will get a great deal that your wife will fully support.









Ships fast and Free in the USA. Shave Ready. Packaged expertly, sanitized, honed, stropped, boxed, oiled, bagged, boxed you know the Beard Knife routine.

I do have the original wood coffin box too. I'm selling it separately as to keep the price down here and to possibly solve two customer's problems instead of one.

The Puma Guarantee from the early 1900's...just thought you might like some history on the blade/brand.
Most wet shavers of course are familiar with the Puma's.


"It is a wide spread opinion that it is a matter of chance to find a good razor. To a certain degree this opinion is justified. Considering the thousands of inferior brands thrown upon the market pressing down the prices continually it must be clear to common sense that this can only take place at the cost of quality. Adding to this the fact, that even the most experienced expert is not able to tell the real quality of a ready razor, it is therefore not suprising that the inexperienced becomes puzzled and does not know to whom to apply for a real good quality razor.
Only a razor work like that of the "PUMA" brand, which manufactures this article only in finest qulity, exerting the utmost care, and whose motto is:

I highly RECOMMEND for any items that have STEEL components that you pick up a 5 dollar bottle of Beard Knife Razor lube. It lasts forever and costs next to nothing to protect your investment. I see guys dropping $200 dollars on a razor and then wondering why it develops rust when they leave it wet and don't take care of it. Stainless steel doesn't mean rust proof steel. Remember your blade can last HUNDREDS of years or a month. That's entirely up to you. Always...ALWAYS dry your razor after use. Get a stand so it can drip dry if nothing else and apply a little of this oil to your steel after use and you will not have to worry about rust. https://www.beardknife.com/listing/649137610/beardknife-straight-razor-steel-lube

My return policy is simple.
NO returns.
Why?

Because sellers are already losing money on postage, paying HIGH fees to make products available. When an item is SOLD it can no longer be SOLD. Contrary to popular belief nothing is free and the BUYER pays all costs. There are a lot of games we are forced to play like "free shipping" and 30 day refunds...I don't play those games. If you don't want the product...don't buy it.

If you do want it...keep it.
I can't afford to lose money or sales for customers I'd rather not keep. It sounds harsh but I assure you...it's true. I don't need everyone's business nor do I want everyone's business.

When you provide things like soaps, lotions, and other consumables a return goes into the trash and the cost of the item is increased to absorb loss. That's not fair to good customers.

It's near impossible already to keep prices down with inflation and an incompetent government constantly disrupting the markets. Antiques razors are carefully packaged by me to assure they arrive safely. When BAD customers return items they also don't care to package them properly and I end up with a $200 dollar loss plus postage and that's not a sustainable business model. If you want to try things and return them but cheap Chinese junk from Amazon and go nuts. When you are THE best at something you can be selective with your policies and customers. Please note IF something is NOT as described or you receive the wrong item entirely I am of course going to correct MY mistake. Buyer remorse is not something I take responsibility for. Providing HIGH quality products at the lowest price possible is a near impossible task these days. Many items I lose money on just to make something available. I have no use for used cosmetics and I do not want them back. If a razor is not shaving to your satisfaction I will allow a return within 30 days. (buyer pays return postage) I will pay to ship it back and I will assure the razor edge it is adjusted to your needs. If for some reason I cannot do so then and ONLY then will I issue a refund. I'd rather lose a bad customer than increase cost on a good one. Fortunately almost ALL of my customers have been awesome and return requests are extremely rare. I do appreciate you guys! Also a word of advice...if you want to try a product and you don't like the fragrance DON'T buy more than one! Scented products are all preference based. I've bought many products I don't prefer. I eat the loss because I chose to buy it. Big retailers can eat the loss...us little guys cannot. If you have QUESTIONS about an item...please write to me about them BEFORE purchasing. That way you can assure you get what you want before either of us waste our time and money.
