Thanked: 317
lol. Is that a serious question? Yeah, I'd say you've been VERY lucky. Those look to me like they don't need anything more than a trip over the hones, and they are all very beautiful razors.
Also, I'm not an expert, but I'd say that $60 for a Sheffield blade in real ivory handles in near pristine condition is one heck of a deal. I don't see a razor in the lot that I wouldn't be proud to own.
*edit - I'd also like to know where the heck you've been antique shopping. I've never seen anything remotely close to the condition of those razors on ebay unless the prices were way higher than that, and I've never seen anything in that condition at any price at an antique store.Last edited by VeeDubb65; 05-22-2009 at 03:46 AM.

Thanked: 6Those are quite nice! I've also just started collecting and thought I had gotten pretty good deals bidding on ebay, but your collection blows mine away!
