Thread: A Hello...

I have seen Wilkinson's like that on ebay. They came with a case that had an apparatus built in to strop the blades. I am not sure if that is the same type. Looks like it could be honed and stropped if someone knew what they were about. Welcome to SRP.

That is one cool tool! Thank you for sharing it! If for some strange reason you want my opinion....get that baby shave ready and use it!!!

Just found this: http://cgi.ebay.com/Wilkinson-Sword-...ayphotohosting

Doesn't seem to be in as nice condition as yours, though.

Do you plan to have the blades sharpened for use?

I will give it a go. It's taking a trip to the USA for a week or two first though, someone wants a closer look.

That's the seven day version. Mine is smaller, with only the three days.

that is an AWESOME razor. I absolutely love it. Can you choose to use it as a straight, or as a safety?

Hi, I'm in Mumbles Swansea.

Dydw i ddim siarad gymraeg..

Not much Welsh spoken in Swansea I'm afraid, even less so in Mumbles. It's hard to tell if you are in Swansea or Sussex in my local pubs.

That is very cool!
Can't believe you haven't tried it already!
Looks like you can sharpen it like a straight with that handle.
