    Default Zwilling's 275th anniversary

    To celebrate their 275th anniversary Zwilling sell this set in Germany. The guy who posted this on nassrasur.com says it'll set you back 275 euros. Its design is not quite my mug of lather...

    A bit overpriced. 200 would have been more realistic. However, it is a nice shaving set.

    That's what they charged for it in 1931 when they had their 200th anniversary....

    Stupid Euro.
    Had Zwilling been founded 5 years earlier, we could have all bought this for 275 Deutschmark - five years ago!

    ETA: On a more serious note, I've been wondering for quite a while now whether Zwilling was likely to return to the razor business. By all accounts, straight razor shaving is growing in popularity, Dovo has increased its output significantly over the last few years. I could imagine that the circumstances that led to Zwilling's dropping of their straight razor production a few years ago may have changed completely by now.
    What do you guys think?
