    Default The blind hog finds an acorn

    Hi all

    I was at an estate sale this past Saturday. What did my wondering eyes behold but a Wade and Butcher Seven Day set in rough, but restorable condition. The asking price was $135 USD, but it was 50% off. Too much!
    The lady running the sale, said, I could place a bid and see if the owners would accept it. I bid $20 and they accepted it.

    I picked them up yesterday and now will see if I can get them back into serviceable condition.

    Sounds like a good one, although pictures are really what gets everyone excited.
    It's not what you know, it's who you take fishing!

    You sure know how to tease a straight razor crowd!

    There something about 7 day sets, I like 'em, a lot

    I recently acquired a 7 day set of Swedish framebacks, mostly Heljestrands, my favorite type of shavers

    It has greatly subdued my urge to go look for and buy more razors

    Pictures are needed. I just hope it wasnt one of those sets made for takeing money from tourists. Got to show pics. Even if they are not pretty. Its the SRP Law!

    Ask one of your kids or grandkids to show you how to do it!

    I agree. Find some kid on the street to show you if you dont have kids.
    And dont feel lonely.
