    Thanks for the advise. I greatly appreciate it. I will see which one goes my way. Also, did not know about forum protocol as far as value. Will keep in mind for the future. Thanks again.

    What is so special about GB beside price and size?

    This must be the largest I've seen yet. Mine is 19/16 and that is already quite a size to handle on your face.
    I can't imagine this being comfortable anymore. Curious where the bidding will end.
    As for the question which of the two discussed GB's is the better one, I'd say it's up to personal preference. They're both nearly the same size. After the chip on that first one is removed, they'll be even closer. The tang stamp on the one with the chip is faint and you can only see the iron cross above the GB logo very, very faint. That razor will need some work, the other seems ready to go. The second one has quite some hone wear and then it's down to aesthetics. So there's something to say for both of them.
    In another thread the suggestion was made that the GB's are the next craze. We had the Dubl Ducks, the Filarmonicas, the Wade and Butcher FBU's and perhaps now the GB's. I'd welcome that. It would mean that more of these blades will find their way to the forum and the Bay. Choose wisely and don't get carried away in those last heart-pounding seconds... :-)

    Nothing.
    Really.

    Or as the man in the shaving shop once told me: this 800 euro damascus TI is really special.
    Me: wow. What is so special about it.
    Salesman: the fact that it is 800 euro

    I love that people do a jump like that in price hours before it ends, cuz that is gonna work . I would love to make a bet as to where it lands, but I don't gamble.
