Thread: under the radar

To you DD devotees I was suprised you guys missed the grim reaper vesuvius that sold over Monday on Eboy. For those that don't know vesuvius was one of the brands sold by bresnick in the earlier days and that particular razor predated the bresnick Lifetime grim reaper and as a matter of fact it is far rarer than the DD model and was made by Vesuvius or whoever made the vesuvius. Luckily for me only a few other guys noticed it and I got it for a pretty good price. Is it mint? no but when I'm done with it it will look mint.

Ack! i saw that and simply thought somebody recycled the scales.... Curse you man!

great catch!

i had never heard of the Vesuvius name before... so i passed it by...

nice one!
of course, we all know that bidding against the big spendur is pretty pointless anyway
so what do i get for staying out of the way? a small ugly duckling perhaps?

This (160206365724) is the one I want to know about- a Blue Boar??

Soo... any chance you wanna show us the auction so we can drool over the pics?

really nothing to drool over. It needs some work however- 350022534006.

Too bad about the excessive hone wear going towards the toe.

I didn't miss it - but my snipe was low because it had too much toe wear and the scales seemed a bit beat up (uneven, like with little pit marks). I wanted the scales, and would have paid more for them if they looked better but in this condition I set snipe to what was worth to me and I guess you lived up to your name Enjoy and show us pics when you're done with it

Cheers

Nice steal for the price for sure! Scales alone are certainly worth the price!

so I take it then it is real.....
It went over my alloted amount too- wasn't sure if it was a fake and couldn't find any reference to that model anywhere.
