Now, if Tony Miller's middle name happens to be Milhouse or some such thing and he's a junior, he would absolutely score on these monogrammed beauties!

If it's true that the razors were owned by a barber with 50+ years experience.....man, look at the honing job on that featured razor! I call that a snubbed toe. I'm surprised a barber would hone like that. When I see razors like that in shops, I steer clear. Two handed honing with way too much pressure on the toe when honing?

I am always drawn to 7 day sets even though I don't own any. Very cool. there's just something about them.

This won't last long. These don't match the razors I'm looking for to round out my collection, but I'm still tempted.

i'm pretty sure i saw it sell few weeks ago for less than the current price....

I don't know how the seller concluded that the new Henckels razors are the newer version of a 7-day set. Putting seven razors together doesn't make them into a 7-day set.

More importantly, I've always been wary of buying razors without detailed photos to examine. If you're selling seven razors then you should show all seven razors, unless they are all in similar condition and then you should say so. The listing doesn't mention the condition of any of the razors. That curved point isn't pretty. They could very well be fine but it's a risk you take to buy them, and an expensive one at that.
