    Yes Phrank, $1047 CDN!
    And I was right, the winner made one bid at the end of the auction. No telling what his max was, auto bidding topping the previous best max by $10.

    The original blade maker would be blown away that one of his creations went for such an amount no doubt!!
    Fun to watch this one count down..

    I'm making some huge assumptions here - but let's call that £500 sterling - I'd guess that would be about 5 years wages to the people who originally made it.

    My service is good, fast and cheap. Select any two and discount the third.

    I'm not shocked by the final price at all. I think it deserved it. It's a remarkable specimen. It isn't often that such a vintage blade is in such great condition.

    I'm just imagining what other razors you can get for that money... there's a lot of cool stuff out there.
