    Default FS: Wade & Butcher Ottoman Egyptian and Royal Windsor Razor

    Here is it, The Unicorn! Probably the rarest straight razor in the world. I believe there are 4 or 5 of these known to exist.

    Cheetah, the devil lol, picked up the last known one in the wild some time ago....

    So originally this blade needed some extra restoration work when the first attempt to restore the blade resulted in it's breaking in half.

    Ulrik, master razor maker, was entrusted with repairing the razor, and while at it, made a copy for himself as well, you can read about the "silver-solder" technique he used and it's journey it in this thread:

    So, it's time to move this historical Unicorn to the next owner. I am listing it at 2:30pm EST Friday June 20 and will close the listing on Sunday June 22 at 9pm EST so everyone has a chance and for those that may not see the listing immediately.

    The RESERVE PRICE will be $2,000 USD plus $40 USD for shipping - PAYPAL Friends and Family only(been burned using Goods, so this is the reason). I will do tracked shipping arriving within 3-10 business days and declaration and insurance according to request. So whoever has the highest bid as of Sunday, wins the razor. Please PM me if interested.

    Regarding the price, this was tough, CHATGPT suggested anywhere between $1,500 and $2,500, for such a rare razor, so I went in the middle.

    Tough to part with this one, but I'm getting old enough to start paring down my collection as it's really only around 20/30 that are my favourite razors. There is an "Incoming" thread here somewhere when I got the razor initially but I can't seem to locate it.

    Thanks for looking and everyone enjoy your weekend.

    This razor is "Shave-Ready", finished on an Escher Barbers Delight. Oh...and the razor is actually a wedge as well.
