Should be a link to a Piere Thiers razor, the one with the hammered back. This one is number 23 :D
Only ships to the US according to the listing but its always possible to ask I reckon
And it was owned by Robert Jordan

Extremely nice collectible. They sell new for over $500.00 if you can find them. I'm interested to see how much this one will go for.
Wow, anyone else see the pin job on that one? Looks like it's way off. Well, it IS a TI...
Yeah I'm kinda curious as well. A shame its closed to america.
I got mine about a year ago on ebay for $350.00. It is cool but the blade has a slight warp and even without that the rolling X is called for in honing. You really have to work at getting the heel evenly sharp with the rest of the blade. Decent shave but nothing to write home about. If you are a TI collector or just like the style of the thing I guess it is desirable. :shrug:
I've heard these razors highly praised. Although I haven't shaved with one of these, the TI steel I have shaved with has been some of the best I've tried. Personally, I prefer the Rolling X when honing because I get my best results all along the blade. :DQuote:
