    2 Vintage hollow ground razors both with etch blades, 5/8 atleast in size, the first razor with faux tortoise shell scales and the 2nd has celluloid scales both open and close freely and centre well when closed,
    honed by myself, I have been honing for several years, and sold many razors on here and ebay with no complaints.
    Both where finished on the SG 20k and honed using 1 layer of scotch 88 tape.

    The strop has some nics in (I have sanded the nics down and its good to strop with) and it looks like something was spilt on it at some point as the bottom end is slightly stained, I have cleaned the strop twice and the mark is still there it does not affect the stropping at all, as this is being sold as a starter set its more than good for the purpose (It was in worse condition when I got it!!!)
    Also included is a wooded handled badger shave brush which is used a hand full of times and has been thoroughly cleaned.

    I just have too much stuff lying around and need to clear space so a great set for a bargain price of

    Price is £79 that includeds tracked and signed shipping from the UK (on my currency converter app it says about $110 USD)

    Any questions please just ask

    That's an excellent deal!
    And the blade shape is easy for a beginner, but after many shaves is still a "go to" blade shape for me.

    PM received, just waiting for payment, once sorted I will close the thread, it may take a day or so due to work commitments and time differences.
    Thanks

    You, sir, are a great tribute to the traditional wet shaving world. We need to get even more folks involved and this was a wonder way to do it.

    As you can see the set has sold, and has also been posted.

    Thanks again to SRP.

    I have a couple of more sets I will be listing this weekend if I have time
