Thanked: 4these look interesting
Any thoughts on these?
Three Antique Straight Razors | eBay
The shape is kinda cool and a few bidders are jumping in already.
What do you guys think?

I agree about the shape of the razors - particularly the second one - but I'd be hesitant to bid too high on anything with photos that are that unclear. They could be great, but it's hard to see anything clearly.
Caveat emptor.
It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

Probably best not to post the active auction. Wasn't planning on bidding on these but maybe some people here were and now it's open to anyone who sees it.
I do like the stamp on the French one. I have a Sabatier kitchen knife that has a trumpet stamp and Medaille d'Argent just like that.

Thanked: 4826Funny how it is always so easy to let the cat out of the bag, getting it back in on the other hand...
I rarely look at anything listed as ships to US and nothing else listed. I realize that it is the same continent but hate having to ask all the time, what about Canada. It did go what seems like inexpensive. The pics were not very telling for sure.

For what seemed like three pretty nice vintage straights, $79 is a steal, IMO. Winning bidder was quite lucky I think.
