I love that case. Maybe I should bid so if I win I can have it made into a wall clock

Nice set. I wonder if the scales are dyed horn or genuine tortoise ? Anyhow, I have a 4 razor cased set by the same outfit. Here is a thread I posted on them with photos. Good shavers all once I honed them up.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Comparing the box with the razor handles, it is possible that all are genuine tortoise shell. It is hard to tell from the photos. I agree with Jimmy that they could be either dyed horn or tortoise. The box looks to be made of slabs of organic material with dark splotches, which argues tortoise. Bull horns are simply not that large Wish I could bid on this lot!

I'm no expert, but it all looks genuine to me.
