    It is pretty, and the seller is proud of it, judging by the asking price .......

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    It must mean a lot to him... It is beautiful, but this is another razor I will be admiring from afar.

    It looks to me like there is still quite a bit of 'Black Rust' in the obvious pitting that was not cleaned up...just saying, that for that kind of money you would think it should be a 'little more perfect'...MHO.

    Well, to be honest, Cheetah. Big old GB's have been sort of 'passe' since you quit coming around and that other guy got banned!
    You 2 had all the big GB's. We have had to move on!

    I rest my case.

    Compared to those back then, this ain't even 'big.' A mere 8/8 ......... that size is as common as dirt ........

    It is good that he knew when to quit on the blade. I don't like the scales, though. That thing should be in horn (preferably old horn!) with iron pins and collars. JMO, though..............
