    It's a horizontal straight with replaceable blades. What's not to like?

    I mean I'm all for patina but for Pete sake, the guy could at least give it a quick once over with Never Dull and put it together properly. Seems like even if you weren't an expert on straight razors, you'd know this wasn't a straight.

    I wouldn't be so sure about that. I go to a lot of antique shops and if I don't see any str8s I ask, then get lead to the DEs. This has happened a few times now. Seems to me if it's not a Mach whatever some of them have no clue.

    He just said, "thanks for the info". We'll see if this goes up as a Super Rare One of a Kind Safety Razor in a day or so.

    Actually the razor is assembled properly . If you look closely you can see that there is no other way to put it together . It looks like it's upside down , but it's not . I should have bought it , as I've never seen a DE quite like this one .

    I can't tell if you're joking or not.

    I'm sorry , I should have thought about it a little more , before I opened my mouth . You're right , it's upside down . Shows what I know about DE's
