I bid because of the great shape. But looking at it now, it appears to be honed to death.
Good buy for 16$ or should I cancel the sale. It is not shave ready at all.

I'd snatch it in a heartbeat Hagan at that price.
That razor is a Klingon Z3, very sought after. :beer2:
No links or pics here either?
Omg that is embarrassing, it was late and I didn't paste link.
Vintage Straight Razor Gilbert Saville Works 4 8 Blade Germany with Case Nice | eBay
After looking closer it seems very uneven, or is it just my eyes?
Major honewear and a frown, I hope you didn't win it because if it were mine it would be going straight to the garbage.
Nice to see someone ask and post a link before buying a dud,amazes me the junk people buy and post after the fact.
Thankfully I bought the razor from my other thread. This was on my watch list from when I first started hunting.
Personally I would pass just due to the wear
But if it is cheap enough will be a good practicer maybe
That poor razor is well past its prime. To your advantage it passed you by. Check the "Auction" heading on the main page. There are some great resources within for hedging your luck on eBay.
The pictures are deceptive. Looking at the first photos you'd think that it was a nice razor.
That much hone abuse and still chips on the edge - somebody has had a lot of free time on their hands and don't know much about sharpening.Quote:

Dat honewear.
It has an unevenly worn spine, a frown and a toe that is visibly less wide than the heel - if it had a hook-heel it would likely tick all the boxes for avoiding a razor.
