Thanks for the reminder - I was curious how high that one was going to go. Yikes.

36 bids?! To each his own I suppose.

Don't get me wrong - I think that is a beautiful razor: I love my W&Bs, and my current favourite shaver is also a 'For Barbers Use' (although a J.Wolstenholm). So I am a big fan of W&B as well as the big chopper format of a for barbers use, but yikes!

I was watching that one just out of curiosity. It is a beautiful exemplar of the type, but almost $900? These W&B meat choppers have gone through the roof-worse than Filis!
edit: I think it's sorta funny how in the "More Chances to Get What You Want" under it are a couple of Gold Dollars-so I'll just get one of those as a consolation prize.Last edited by ScoutHikerDad; 07-14-2012 at 03:23 PM.

Good Lord that is ridiculous. For that amount of money one could probably commission a one of a kind custom razor, oh well. If it shows up here on SRP we'll know who has some deep pockets. Hope the new owner enjoys it for years to come.
