Thats exactly what I'm doing right now. Some of the prices the W&B's have been getting lately have been crazy. Originally Posted by Del1r1um

Avoid corrosion, specifically on the edge. However, remember that these meat choppers are so thick that you can almost certainly sand the corrosion on the body off. Or have it reground. Personally, I'd rather buy one with a bit of corrosion (not on the edge) for a lot less money, and send it out to be reground and refinished by someone who has the equipment and knows what he is doing, that to pay more for a "clean" one that has been worked on by a hamfisted seller who doesn't know if he is damaging the razor.

So you're the one who stole my blade... I wasn't even sure that the blade would have pitting, it looked like it could just be staining or poor lighting. Be sure to point me to some pics when she arrives. Originally Posted by RayG

Lol... the seller sent me a bunch of close up photos. No pitting that I could see. I hope.

The advice I was given is bid low and bid often. It worked out for me, and I always keep an eye out for more large blades on the cheap. Just remember, it's never worth paying too much for one (only you can decide what's "too much"), because there are lots out there.
