    I don't see anything wrong with it, I don't own a Bengal, though, so I'm sorry that I can't give you a shave report.
    Even if I did, I can not tell you how to bid. That's between you & your wallet & It might be against our rules.

    I have a Bengall, it's a very good shaver - it's my professionally honed blade that I use as a reference.

    The Bengall brand is one used by T R Cadman of Sheffield, and it seems they knew what they were doing.

    Can't comment on that particular auction though.

    I've got two at the moment and I've owned a few more. They are a great quality Sheffield razor.

    I own two Bengall razors. They are a great razor to have...They shave damn well too ;p Only one of mine is in rotation (below), the other is a 5/8 hand forged blue steel that I plan on fixing up when I get around to it

    They are usually excellent shavers - equal to or better than most others I have used, both new and vintage, with a long, fine tradition.

    Regards,
    Neil
