    Sad end for such a beauty.

    I would say prices are going to go back up since I'm getting interested in razors again, but I'm wanting to sell some the prices will probably go even lower (on the ones I would sell anyway).

    That's always my dilemma selling rifles. I'm a lefty and they cost more when I'm buying because there aren't as many rifles available. Yet when I'm selling, they sell low because there aren't as many buyers available LOL.

    Just like real estate and stocks, I tend to buy high and sell low!

    It is possible that the razor may have been modified for trimming hair rather than for shaving. This would be similar to the design of thinning shears.
