Thanked: 13245JAQUES LECOULTRE Set
Okay does this seem odd to anyone else
There are usually One frame and 7 blades
Maybe i am getting forgetful in my old age but I don't remember seeing them with 7 marked frames in the past, it just doesn't make much sense to my OCD brain
Thoughts ???

That does seem kinda odd. Repaceable blade option but no extra blades? You should buy it Glen! Find 42 more blades and 6 boxes and your set for life!
It's just Sharpening, right?

Mebbe there are/were some extra blades stashed in the box somewhere? That's what they did on the single ones.
I gave a friend one and he found 2 spare blades in the liner of the box. I had no idea they were there.

Thanked: 4827I have to say I have never seen one quite like that before. Thanks for pointing it out.

Yeah...I mean, isn't one enough? Not bad razors, but quite an investment there..

Thanked: 4827I already have one, with a few spare blades, so I am intrigued but not about to lay down the cash. I think I am pretty content to be on the sidelines.

Found a very similar set here. Even one replaced screw.

From what I see JAQUES LECOULTRE only were framebacks so why not?
Save you from replacing the blade everyday and wearing out the screws.
