    For sure, no way I can go for it. I have my 7 day set that has the interchangeable blades which is good enough for me. If I had more money than I knew what to do with, that would be another story & i would make an offer. One of them has a chipped blade but it could be worked out or just use another blade from another set that has just blades in it like mine. I also have a 5 day set & two 2 blade sets. I just wanted to show it since i have never seen a set like that one before!

    That is a cool Set. Not sure why, but Framebacks just add that "something" to the Cool Factor which is kind of the opposite way you'd expect as it seems a less technically challenging way to build a SR.

    Also interesting how there are typically less than half the razors in the set with heavy use. Makes me wonder if the concept of a "razor a day" is just something that appears cool on the surfacr and then, once you own one, practicality takes over. Seven Day Sets are, for now, my White Whale so only time will tell for me.

    I have the 7 day set with just one razor plus 6 extra blades. This set would be super nice as I don't own a real 7 day set yet! Not paying that price though & i don't even have enough money to make an offer.

    It's almost perfect, but not worth the cake IMO missing the original Saturday blade. Who am I kidding though, I wouldn't buy it with all the originals. I do love my own Swedish Frameback, but I only own the one. Prefer a traditional straight..
    Nice find though..
    Cheers.

    Mike, I understand! I love my French & Swedish razors but I THINK it's a made set since it is missing Saturday. Someone may have had 6 & then bought separate one on eBay to complete it. The screw on one of them is not original either. Like I said, I just wanted to show it.
