Saw this one come up: Antique Straight Razor of Jim Porter Kentucky's Giant from 1830'S | eBay
Cheetah? It's got an inch and a half blade...

I see the seller has mostly pillow cases and sheets and linen things. Trying their hand at selling a story ? It does look really old but really? And the shipping LOL ,good point Dewey. I must start shaping metal in this fashion and throw some wood on it and let it sit outside a year or two. Starting price 2,000 ? I just can't resist that profit margin. IF I didn't have to live with myself I could be rich.

Looks like the seller is fishing to see what someone would pay.

bet ya they will drop it alot everything it don't sell.
I find it's best to just move on and buy other stuff.
I find it's best not to even try and haggle with folks who clearly over price the item.

I agree. Good for amusement, but I usually just move on.Suile likes this.

Oh, of course. I would never buy that razor, not without a makers mark, not for 2 grand, not for two hundred. I don't buy stories, I buy razors. I wasn't going to haggle with the guy - just bust his chops a little. Frankly, putting up a price and a story like that is insulting. Originally Posted by Suile

The guy probably got it for a song and since it ain't eating anything figured he'd take a shot. Columbus took a chance and look what happened to him.
