Thaeris, Is this your personal collection?
Nice razors! I really like the travel case in the 5th picture.

Except the pieces I sold, yes it is !
I'm also really keen on my travel case, which contains stuffs to shave, write, paint and even eat !
And I love the beauty of the silver plated "lids" (not sure about the word ?)
It's a real pleasure to shave outside with one of those travel set.
I've got a second one I want to sell / trade by the way.
