Have a look at this one! lol....
Wow...I'm not sure what to say about this one! Razor estimated to be from the 1700's maybe 1800's with original Wostenholm case. Razor made in Germany! lol....It's not that hard to do a little research before selling something! Crazy

Funny how a razor made in Germany comes with an "original" case from England... What a hoot!

I thought the seller wasn't too bright , until I noticed that some "genius" (or shill) has bid $25.00 for it .

Ha, that is pathetic! Good catch.
Kind of makes me wonder, however -- why is it that you see lots and lots of razors from late 1800s, some from mid 1800s and one or two from early 1800s, but there doesn't seem to be any around from earlier. I mean, it's not like metal just turns into dust after 200 years, so where are all of the great straight razors from before 1800? People must have shaved back then, right?

The razor itself screams early 20th century.
