Boxed Seven day sets with all the above.
See the workshop or gallery or shave of the day for many fine examples.
I have been looking. And there are some beautiful razors with wonderful workmanship is those pages. I have serious razor envy and I havent even seen my first razor yet. I will get it this Sunday though.
