Thats a pretty broad question, have any pics? What exactly are you wanting to know?

I found one on craigslist for sale it looks to be in great shape there asking
$200 but thats not firm I haven't seen many of these. Are they rare
what is the price range.I dont have any pictures on the scales it has
1902-1927 and the blade is etched 25 with leafs around it. any info would be helpful. Thanks

While I don't know anything about that razor, I would never pay that for something I was unfamilier with. Craigslist is not a good source for anyone new to the hobby, unless you know what your looking for and at. Be careful...

We don't really get into the $$ side of things. You could do a search on Ebite and see if you get any matches and see what they run.

I saw an add for that same razor on many sites, I would pass on that one big time. Looks rusted and the description just gives me the RED FLAG alerts. If you really want a good razor for shaving check out the Member classifieds Straight Razors - Straight Razor Place Classifieds You can see what good razors in using condition can run.
