well it came last night, Great price great condition, one small spot rust on the blade that came off with some steel wool.

it was perfect, save for the CRACK IN THE BLADE 1/4 INCH LONG!!!!

Couldn't see it in the picture, wasn't listed in the description,

grumble grumble

at least it was inexpensive. it would cost more to ship it back than i would get in a refund so I am now the owner of a nice looking paperweight. it is shaveable as the crack is about 3/8ths from the heel of the blade and its just a hairline but it would make me nervous.

The seller is an antique seller not a razor junkie and didn't notice the crack and was apologetic about it offering store credit equal to the price of the razor as I don't want to pay to ship it back. so for a decent price i have something that I can practice honing with and looks nice, JUST CANT SHAVE WITH IT!!!!!!!
