Sure!


The whole box of razors.


The bottom two drawers.

Four more drawers.

Two more drawers and the top.

Okay, I lied. There's only about 220 razors in there. (including each individual razor from the 3 7-day sets)

You asked for it....that's classic...thanks Voidmonster...ask and you shall receive!!

French medical set, early 1900, Vitry Frères, Paris.













Set's mania 8D

Probebly belonged to an Ortho Doc,That Large pair of scissors is a Classic cast cutter.

I would have said a trusses of dissection, perhaps for medical students, doc or veterinary surgeon.

But I'll keep the orthoption in mind

Also got this french Querelle's pair, ivory scaled, with an unusually large box.



But the broken one will be hard to fix due to the (once again unusual) thinness of the scales, so I'll probably have another use of it.

Edit : adding old ads from the manufacturer of my set, after it was bought by Thinet.

Glad you pointed that out, pixelfixed. I had some disturbing images in my head, wondering what those scissors were designed to do.

Thaeris, nice set as per usual.

Modern day cast cutter,great for cutting brass shimstock
