    WoW. What a beautiful set. I bet they shave as good as they look.

    Wonderful choice,thanks for sharing that good story. However, a seven day set may mean no more future acquisitions. I would be plead to relieve of the razors to extricate you from this dilemma.

    I believe that he will be shaving in the bank safe deposit box vault from now on.

    I would not leave those at home unless they were safely tucked away in a bolted down glass plate safe.

    Just sexy.

    Very nice indeed, dottore!

    +2 on Steve Invisible's standards of service. He is the standard to which all others should aspire. Except of course the other fine Gentleman & Lady Traders hereabouts.

    So can we expect you to bring the bambini in September?

    Only if we drive (fat chance), I don't know if I would risk packing them in checked luggage.

    I've wanted this set for almost 30 years. I guess that you're younger than me (61) so just be patient!

    Not in a million years. I would never carry something that valuable on a plain unless it was in my carry-on, and since you obviously can't get through airport screening with that in you carry-on.....

    I'd be more comfortable packing them up nicely and shipping them to the hotel I planned to stay at than putting them in checked luggage.

    Suhweet seven-day set you've got yourself there. I'm gonna go ahead and restate what everyone else has already said at least 5 or 6 times. I'm not one for ivory scales, but those are absolutely gorgeous!.

    Very cool, Congrats!!

    I don't ever remember seeing a TI 7 day set, did you also get it boxed in their nice custom wooden cases they make?

    The real ivory scales and days of the week in Italian are very nice touches
