On an antique safari this morning, I came across an interesting razor.
It was in a Kobar box, with the two dudes shaking hands.
The razor itself was in pretty decent condition...nothing a Norton 4000/8000 and some Simichrome can't take care of. Looked like a 5/8.

The guy at the shop wants about $47 for it (converted from Israeli shekels) and I'm curious if you guys think that's a decent price. Also, since the razor markings were a tad hard to make out, if anybody has a Kobar and can post a picture (or at least describe it) that would help me a lot in determining if this thing is legit or not (in which case I can bargain him down a bit).


My hometown of Haifa has proved a poor source for old blades. Hopefully in Tel-Aviv and Jerusalem, both cities with a bit more history, I'll have better results.
