    That's a crime! I think you should sell em to me . They are 4/8's right ..

    I always thought I would make a 7 day set out of 7 different blades. That way I would have the fun of 7 different types oh blades and the uniformity of a weekly set after I re-scaled them.

    I just can't seem to pick which 7!!

    Now that is my idea of a 7 day set with class, understated and top quality.

    They are 5/8. 5 have ivory scales and 2 have faux ivory scales. As soon as I figure out how to get ivory to the end of the earth they will all match.

    Here's an interesting 7 Day set I picked up a couple of weeks ago at a local Vintage store in Toronto. Was in reasonable shape, and for $35.00, figured it was something fun to have around. Like my Rolls Razor, haven't tried this out yet. It's a Wilkinson 7 Day Safety razor set:

    I really like the look of the Hart 7 day set. But ouch have to sell a kidney to buy one. LOL. An that Wilkinson is awesome! I have a 10 day set of DE but not even close with the straight set yet. Getting there.
