Save Those Pennies ...... Or Rob The Piggy Bank For This One ........
It is an active BIN auction, and for a 'pretty penny', but I'm bringing it to the member's of SRP's attention because of how unique and beautiful a piece it is. I don't know the seller, and whether it is worth the asking price or not is up to the beholder. My pockets aren't that deep, and even if they were, I don't know that I'd go for it. An unusual piece though, like we've seen in another thread recently. So without further adieu ........... ;

Picking fly poop out of the pepper or not, I think that is a Tillotson's Celebrated Razor.
I also think he's dreaming.

As-usual, Wullie is spot on. I see Tillotsons and the scales are no way original, IMO. I am afeared if it were unpinned, the scissors hole and the tang were conjoined and clothed in these unlikely clothes at some point in time. Hopefully long ago and not recent. JMO.

I rest my case.

I have to agree......
Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

The seller has amassed a collection of thousands of straights, according to his description, so he must know what he's talking about...

Cool looking razor for sure. Obviously he's more than a little proud of it. Good luck selling it for that kind of money.
