Bells and whistles
Well being new and curious, I was wondering what exactly would constitute bells and whistles on a straight razor, other than shave ready?

Yep. Intricate spine work whether that be the checkers on a Fili Barbas Duras or file work on some of the new school razors. Originally Posted by Slartibartfast

Ivory Scales , 24 ct Gold or Human Bone Scales(hehe).
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.
