    Well she is certainly far from mint, but with some time and elbow grease I'll bet she cleans up real nice! Hopefully both the blade and scales are 100% intact (no chips, etc...). I don't think thats a bad price for a decent razor that needs work. It's really a matter of what you think it's worth though. Post some pics once you get the razor!!

    I agree. A little cleaning, polishing and honing and she'll be good to give a lifetime of service.

    I agree - it's hard to be definitive from the photo, but with a bit of work that should come up nicely.
